Day 3- Mykonos


We have left the mainland and are down in the islands. The 5:15 wake-up call was not terribly pleasant but we actually made it to the ferry with plenty of time to spare. Imagine- us being on time! The highspeed ferry was great- it only took 3 hours to get down here and we got to stop at a few islands on the way. We are staying outside of the main town at the beach- sooo nice!! We have had pina coladas and daiquiris on the beach and eaten amazing greek food. All and all a very relaxing day. Tomorrow we are off to Delos to explore the island. I'm excited to see the temples and all of the religious antiquities- Mom wants to see Cleopatra's house. I did make the mistake though of letting her read the part in the lonely planet about snakes...she isn't terribly impressed. She's convinced we'll see them everywhere.

oooh mykonos! So jealous - didn't manage to fit that in to our trip. I hear the island is just gorgeous - picture perfect white and blue homes. Can't wait to see the photos!
