I was so intrigued by your mention of the sun rising from the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion, that I just had to find a picture of this temple somewhere on the 'net. And I did!

But alas! What was Lord Byron thinking of when he graffiti'ed that beautiful temple????

Tsk-tsk. Out your way they'd call something like that "the South Bronx", and avoid it instead of rhapsodizing on it. (Say, is that Yankee Stadium in the background?)
Maybe he was a bad speller, and was bidding farewell to his, uh, "friend", Ron.
I consider Byron's etching more as a treasured autograph than graffiti :)
That's a nice way of putting it. :) Well, I guess Byron earned it, for b*tch-slapping Lord Elgin in verse. :)
