Despotiko Hotel Mykonos Town

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 ...

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 ...

... am headed there shortly. It's windy and rain clouds are looming. So, probably not going to get to work on that deep, dark, golden tan. Oh well. Maybe in Spain. :)

OH! Have I told you about where I'll be spending my birthday? I found this absolutely adorable agriturismo in southern Sicily that looks wonderful. Here's the site: www.villazottopera.it They're going to give me one-on-one cooking classes and they have a pool and horses and walking trails and all ...

this trip was very special to me,because it was the first one after I finally finished with school and had the freedom to do everything I want,without anybody else controlling me!the only thing I wanted to do is find a nice place with great people to relax and so I did.i met many interesting people and it was a journey to remember!

... bed. The cabin staff are Filipinos and Indonesians with the restaurant staff being mostly the latter, so I was able to chat with them in their native tongue, much to their surprise.
There was a mandatory lifeboat drill just before departure and we sailed out of Piraeus harbour at five in the afternoon.
Our first meal in the main dining room (La Fontein) was excellent and the dining room is ...

... were white! The sky was clear blue! Vendors were yelling! The smells of slouvaki were everywhere! It felt like we were at our Summer Fair!

We walked around the port and did some browsing in the store front shops and street market, occasionally being enticed to view local Greek Nike t-shirts! Being seasoned shoppers, we avoided eye contact and only took interest in an item if we were truly ...

Took 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 !!)

... lion bodies of the Egyptians, and beautiful Greek faces, though still with the Egyptian braids. A massive sculpture of a bull, muscles beautifully carved. A gaming table with some dice. By the time I got done it was noon and time to get our laundry. It was done beautifully, folded and not firzzled at all. "Restaurant Row" starts next to the metro station, so we were going to stop at a gyro place again ...

Mykonos was beautiful and lovely...and windy-wind that could blow you over, or just blow sand in your face at the beach! Despite getting lost early on, Nick and I loved Mykonos, particularly the food and the views. The city is designed like a labyrinth, with the intention to confuse pirates, and incidentally, tourists as well. This contributed to our losing our way, but ...

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.
