The Greek relics are wonderful and the Temple of Concordia surely and by far rivals Greece and any ancient Greek ruins anywhere...

It would be nice to learn these words directly in a place with snow, but, anyway, it is not bad without it too... They are: ski bum, lure, run-up, footsteps, junkie, trigger, unleashing and breakneck thrills.
