LIANOS VILLAGE Naxos

... 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 ...

It&#8217;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. <br> <br> This is ...

... divine. It's funny how two months ago I would hyperventilate every time I did the math and realized how close I was to turning 29, which is so close to 30, which is so close to 35, which is so close to 40... you get the picture. And I'd think, "I don't own a house, I'm not married, I don't know if I want kids, What do I want to do when I grow up? Who am I?" And now I think, "Enh, I'm me. That's all I need to be for right now. We'll see who I am when I get to 29 and ...

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!

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 !!)

... the bottle but as we were drinking it I could feel the staff giving us the evil eyes. It was starting to make me feel uncomfortable. We weren't loud or disruptive, in fact I even go so far as to say that you wouldn't even know we were there so I felt they had no reason to be acting the way they were. It was a wine bar after all and we were paying customers. We finished the second bottle quicker than anticipated and we didn't want to leave yet so I went up and asked if we could have ...

... it had 12 columns on each side and 6 on each end although there is no evidence the formal temple was ever finished. I explored the site during my stay and can see why the ancient Greeks chose the location since it looks over a nice harbor and provides great vantage points to observe sea traffic. George from Windmill Naxos met me at the port and drove me the short distance to his pension. He pointed out key places in the small town and provided a ...

... time in Naxos. We went into town and walked to this little gate along the waterfront. It is acient and surprisingly still standing. We then turned around and saw the undeveloped cliffs and rocks as the waves crashed down upon them. It was a beautiful sight with the white walled building of a small city perched upon the cliff above. What a beautiful place. It was too bad that we had to catch another ferry otherwise we would have had ...

... room. We ask where the grocery store is, the dude walks you there himself. We asked where to rent scooters, he calls the place, reserves our scooters, and then DRIVES US THERE HIMSELF! It just shows how hospitable Greek people are. We spent our first night in Naxos laying on the beach which is about 100 meters from our hotel and then cooking dinner before calling it an early night. We were so exhausted from the previous three days that we were all asleep by 9pm and ...

Having a ball in Naxos. Its soooo hot here. I mean hotter than normal, which is still pretty hot. I really love the hotel, it has a pool. The little shops are so cute and there are thousands of little trinkets I would love to buy for you all but they mostly glass and I know they would not travel well. :( But the thought is there. I think Marlena is leaving tomorrow but I am thinking of staying on ...
