The Odyssey book/chapter siete

This chapter was very discriptive, and displayed the great wealth of Alcinous and Arete. I was again surprised at the hospitality that they give to the stranger, Ulysses. Basically, Ulysses is waiting for the right time to go intot eh city, when Minerva, disguized as a little girl, leads him to King Alcinous's house. Ulysses gets fed, tells his story, and retreats to bed. Nothing very interesting in this chapter, in my opinion. It was nice and short, though!

    Agreed. I guess the Greeks are just a lot more hospitable, accept for the nasty suitors.

    At one point it sounded as though the land that King Alcinous ruled wasn't very hospitable, which made it even more suprising that they were so hospitable.

    uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis, siete. . . siete is seven, right?
