Setting Sail

... 3000 Euros, we were sold an insurance policy. Our original contract did not state such an arrangement, but we were okay with it. While we checked in, Giannis went to inspect the boat. We invited him to meet us in the café when he finished.

After Shirley and I signed all the papers and called down for our beer, we went to the café. Giannis soon met us. We toasted our first island – there ...

Mosaics and Lions in Delos

Delos is an incredibly interesting place. The entire island is a collection of ruins where no one is allowed to stay on the island overnight so everyone who visits are day trippers—most of whom are staying in Mykonos. It was an excellent day for exploring ruins at just over 60F degrees it was cool and pleasant. There is a lot to explore on the island so be sure to leave enough time to see it all.

There are no complete building standing, but ...

A few days in Mykonos

It’s a little cool outside for a party island that is famous for its nude beaches and all-night dance clubs. This is the first time that I wished we were visiting Greece during the tourist season since the town almost feels empty and the beaches deserted.

This is ...

... to not get so caught up with what you've achieved in life, as to get caught up in how you are living and celebrating life. Because I promise you, one day all of our oh-so-important-stuff is going to be washed over just like the Romans. And we'll be a quaint little blip on the map of history.

Um. Sorry. I went a little deep there. Perhaps those thoughts are better saved for my journal than my hippity hoppity fun blog!

Okay, so, Mykonos today and then ...

My Big Fat Greek Visit !

... br>
One of the most recognized landmarks on Mykonos has been their windmills. These mills were once used to refine grain and compact it for transport. A fairly strong wind year round made this a great location.

The intinerary had the Ruby departing Mykonos at 2pm so we made our way back to the tender at the marina in plenty of time to catch a lunch on board. After lunch, we chose to relax around the ...

Trip to Delos

... up the mountain to see what we can. On the way the wind blows my dress up so everyone can get a good look at the area of shame. I should mention the pain suffered while walking and the irritated red bull's-eyeish mark that wa evident on my posterior. Flipflops were not appropriate for the difficult steep and slippery climb ahead, but we made it all the way to the top. Our camera died but some nice people took pictures of us which we will try to procure by email ...

BINGO!

... the Supermarket to pick up a few toiletries and print pictures (yes exciting I know). Then we went to the Olympic Flame. She hadn't seen it before and I wanted to get pictures that actually turned out this time because it was daytime. We took a taxi back to the ship which was interesting because the driver had limited knowledge of English and we have no knowledge of Greek. We tried to tell him to take us back the the ...

Sailing in the Greek Islands - May 2006

... ships arrive and leave. We made it to the beach, which was nice but rocky, no sand. Mykonos town is famous for 2 swans that wander the town. They happened to hang out near the restaurant we picked, so we saw the throngs of people following them around town. The boys took a day trip on Thursday to Delos, an island just a mile or so off Mykonos. Delos was the center of the Mediterranean civilization circa 400bc. It was a central trading island, and was inhabited by ...

Cruising the Greek Islands

How on Earth did I get to be so lucky?

My family and I went on a cruise of the Greek Islands. We ate a lot, got sea sick once, soaked up the sun, and absorbed the classically beautiful white and blue colours on the islands. There weren't very much ship activities that my sister and I were interested in but Allyson and I did win a bingo game! Mykonos was by far our favorite island because of its beauty.
