... especially now that I am listening to Ave Maria on my iPod - the song I want to be married on, It makes me feel so calm, so peaceful. There are no words.<br><br>Holly

... to report and this was at 19.15hrs but he was informed at 05.00hrs now you get your conclusion. I strongly believe that the raid was organized with somebody from the hotel and the thief's used a narcotic gas and a fake key to make the entry. My advice ...do not go in Greece especially in the place I m talking about you will have no security and nobody will care about you, the tourism agencies are selling just stories from the books in this case.<br>Respect <br>

... you get out of the large centres. It is still not affordable, but we have little choice in the matter as that price is about as low as you can find here. Our first night we walked to Agia Pelagia which is 1.5 Km from us down hill. Everything here is either up hill or down hill and the hills are steep! We bought groceries for our kitchen and found the walk back up not too bad. for the first two ...

... br> Another highlight was the palace of Knossos where we also learned several new things. This is the palace where the Minotaur, half man half bull, is said to lived in the palace's many roomed maze. Every year seven girls and seven boys from Athens were sent to Knossos for him to eat. What we learned is that life was probably very good in Knossos ( the first flush toilets in the world) . It was ...

... title of Jamangie's favourite bar in the world. Upon entering it was like we never had left...........Yanni even knowingly nodded...and smilingly said something incomprehensible in Greek.......clearly approving our re_aquattaince.....which says a lot for how much Raki we must have drunk with him last time we were there five years previous. And so over the course of the next few ...

Just finished reading Portraits by Cynthia Freeman. Makes me feel even more grateful for my family. I must be one of the luckiest girls around to have a family who love and support me.

... to get us eating at there place. But thankfully they didn't - with exception of one, but you have that evrywhere, don't you? "Hello come into my restaurant. We sell nice food.. fish.. meat.." and they quote the whole menu to you while all you want to do is run away. So in our case not the best way to get us to eat there. That's sounds like rather childish behaviour of us if I read that :/ <br><br>I just swollowed salt water *Yuck!* The sea was lovely though - many waves!<br>

... on it! Six pack mineral water and some fruit juice + two ice creams all for a wapping 26 Euros! There goes our budget! Now wlaking back up, Eve and I had some serious breathing difficulties! At least Eve had enough breath to talk sometimes :p - I was struggling even when simply nodding yes or no *g* We sat down in the shade for a wel needed rest before walking up a small steep path that would take us to ...

... the airport with our backpacks - boy it was hot! I keep trying to remember why I brought a woolly jumper with me. Saying that there is not a bus to the place we want to go to, the taxi drivers say they don't mind driving us there for &#8364;35. Me, being less firm than Eve, was thinking that perhaps we should take a taxi- just one time as we are just starting off- but ...

... were all on the lowest level of the site, in dank darkness. How easily anyone could have found their way through them in the dark, especially since some of them connect in surprising ways, is difficult to imagine. Some scholars think these corridors are to be equated with the "labyrinth" of the Minotaur legend. The Minotaur was the monstrous beast with the body of a man and the head of a bull who required a tithe of youths and maidens from ...
