On the way to Delphi. I didn't realize until the guide mentioned the name, that Mount Parnassu (el monte Parnaso) was a REAL mountain!! In Hispanic poetry many volumes in the 19th and even early 20th century were called "parnasos" I knew it was an allusion to classical Greece but NOT that it actually existed!! I was thrilled.
