Naxos, Naxos, Cyclades, Greece, 84300, 22850-24426
In the morning we both got up for breakfast with no ill effects so I guess we really hadn't overdone it and than went back to our room to repack and generally get ready to go. We had showers and than lied around reading until check out time.
We checked out and than trundled our way down to the port and caught the ferry to Naxos. The trip was abotu 1 1/2 so quite short and sweet almost like going over to Vancouver Island except for all the smoking. When we got everyone lined up to get o...
After breakfast we walked down into the town and went through the old market shopping for souvenirs etc. It was really neat going through all the back streets and meandering looking alleys but it was a bit of a climb. When we got to the top we were in the old Medeival part of the city and so we decided to go on a tour of the Venetian castle that was right there. The castle was very neat with loads of antiques from the Venetian Crusaders who built it as well as their decendants. The person giv...

... are still many columns as well as some interesting mosaics. Even with what remains, there is enough to get a good idea of what the island would have been like in its heyday. The best know sculptures on the island are a row of lions. <br><br>We anchored within the Bay of Delos and returned in the afternoon for lunch aboard. After we finished exploring the island, we boarded the yacht and returned to Mykonos for the evening. We went to shore and found a ...
Delos, Cyclades, Greece mylifesjourney... beautiful place with the village full of white-washed buildings scattered around a maze of little streets and alley ways. Just at it seemed that Santorini was made for couples, Mykonos was make for singles and the party life. This is one place that I want to return to again. <br>
Mykonos, Cyclades, Greece mylifesjourneyI love the fact that I'm sick. Not in an, "Oh, what fun to be sick!" way, but in an, "Expectations will get you every time!" way. I am still really, really enjoying the cruise. But I think the theme of the trip is undoubtedly learning to embrace whatever comes your way even when it's not exactly what you thought it was going to be. I assumed I would be spending the entire cruise sunbathing, getting a deep, dark, golden tan and boozing like a sailor. Instead I've been ...

Naxos, Cyclades, Greece malena.drela... tender garbanzo beans with tomato, oils, cumin, fried tomato balls (tomato, cheese, spices, stuffing) and crusty bread as always. Then out came tomatoes stuffed with rice, eggplant, and potatoes and a tart with jam. We staggered along the beach to our hotel where we were free to swim in the ocean or pool or simply collapse in a food coma for a few hours before the next meal. Tomorrow we will have a long hike climbing up Mt. Zas and seeing the cave reputed to be the birthplace of Zeus.
Naxos, Cyclades, Greece nsadventuresTook the hydroplane from Santorini to Mykonos. Stayed right on the beach and the cruise ships docked right down the beach. Island topography not as dramatic as Santorini but very nice. Surprised how dry and little vegetation on both islands. Got my whole body in the Mediterranean not just my feet (no pictures of that !!)
Mykonos Town, Cyclades, Greece pathenger... a piece of her, for it's a piece of her that goes into the making of it. It's a much more personal gift in comparison to a tee-shirt of a key ring. I was touched by how she decided to display her love for her friends in this way but I was even more touched by her suggestion that we make some jewelery for each other. There are probably guys reading this that will think what a soppy girlie thing to do but for me the idea was beautiful. The idea of creating something for the person ...
Naxos, Cyclades, Greece talamarkoGood morning, Yesterday we left the lovely Santorini for a 2.5 hour ride to Naxos. The ride itself was really nice and before we knew it we had arrived at Naxos. Given we were getting into Naxos at 6pm we thought we had better book some accomadation before we got there. So on to bookings.com we go and found this great place that was "close" to the main city at an awersome price for two nights. We, stupidly ...
