Claire is in Syntagma and is looking for the Acropolis Museum. She asks a man: “Excuse me, where is the museum?” “It isn’t far,” the man says. “Go straight down Amalias. At the end of the street, turn right. Carry on for ten minutes. The museum is on the left, opposite the Acropolis.” “Thank you very much!” In fifteen minutes Claire is there.
