Leigh left you at San Torini before we left to go on the cruise. We climbed the Volcano of which created the San Torini, in thongs mind you…supposedly we were supposed to bring closed shoes but were never told. Swam in hot sulphur springs that smelt suspiciously like Rust. In a previous post I mentioned that I had a hot sulphur spring sauna/mudbath in Pammukale, This did not smell like rotten egg, It smelt and looked like rust. I am not complaining though, its not often you get to swim in hot volcano springs. Ended up getting off the ship early to watch the sunset, some amazing photos, some of which I am sure Leigh will post.
I have very little time to use so I am going to be brief from this point forward. Also I am finding without trip notes writing on this website is kinda tricky. Leigh has been taking notes on what we have actually done so I am thinking I will have to borrow his next time I update. Can’t really remember what else we did on San Torini, I can barely remember the hotel we stayed at…now thats scary.
Mykanos was fantastic, had a lot of fun. We partied hard one of the nights we were there in a place called Paradise, it would have to be one of the most fun nights so far on this trip. Lounged on the beach drinking coctails, beer and the occasional swim. A DJ kinda person who was wearing an elephant gstring was dancing around with numerous hot chicks dancing on the bars…. Leigh found himself up there first and I soon followed…very funny. Ended up getting a table at this bar where we drank copious amounts of Vodka, two bottles to be exact. Stef and I swam out to a yacht that was moored in the bay late that night which even though we were drunk, wasn’t that dangerous as the sea was flat as a tack and you float so easily it was a breeze. Leighs take on this night will be different so stay tuned for his update.
Next day bummed around and recoverd so not much to tell there. Day after hired two buggies and we hooned around the Island visiting as much as we could before we left that night. Mykanos is the party Island but I think it is far more beautiful than San Torini by far.
That night the fateful overnight ferry ride back to Athen where the only space that was left was on the top deck. Gale winds, well it felt like gale winds roared past us while we tried to sleep!!! Now that was an experience. Arrived in Athens, trained to the Airport and then flew to Milan. This is where we all are now. More to follow shortly!!!!!
