There are three important temples on the Acropolis hill,
the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, and the Temple of Nike.
All are included with the single admission price.

The Parthenon, being a principal tourist sight,
can get quite busy.
We went really early in the morning
(at first light)
before the crowds got too bad.
There are some free days
so the frugal tourist should check useful sites like
http://www.parthenontemple.com/visit.php
for updates.

A popular daytrip from Vegas is to the Grand Canyon.
The ground route takes the frugal traveler by the Hover Dam
(where some of us might have locked our keys
in the rental car,
only to meet up with a very nice Hover Dam security officer
- he said it happens all the time).
