Mykonos

Mykonos,where the night life is hot and you can be "whatever you want to be!" Too bad we were there only until 8pm. But we got to see a gorgeous sunset!

Very cute little shopping and walking around area

Pretend Venice

Windmills

There is a ginormous pelican that hangs around the tourist area. He tried to eat me. And then wandered into a store, was shooed out and then tried to eat someone else. He was frightening and super large.

We finished the night on the ship with an ugly shirt contest at which Dan wore a bright pink girl tank top that said Mykonos on it. I have pictures but have been forbidden to post. So you'll just have to imagine that hotness.

Athens street art

Athens had the most beautiful and creative street art. I loved finding new pieces.

This was my favorite

This was Dan's favorite

We also found an amazing Gyro place. It was delicious especially after a long day of wandering around.

So good!

Athens

We went to Greece!!!! The most unrestful vacation I've ever been on but we got to see and do so much! It was fantastic. 

When we arrived in Athens, we attempted to continue to stay up as long as possible. We went to walk around the Acropolis but found it was already closed. So we sat around and admired the view and the endless stray dogs. 

 We shopped around the market for a bit after dinner.

 The next day, we slept in wonderfully late (last time we slept in past 6:30am). And then we went to the Acropolis and wandered around while listening to a Rick Steve's podcast. It was free and made the experience so much more enjoyable.

 Overlook

 Then we did a city walk again guided by the Rick Steve's podcast. It was perfect! We started at the Parliament building and it told us where to walk and kept perfect time with a casual pace.

 In front of the Parliament building they have their tomb of the unknown soldier.

 Of course there are guards in front wearing traditional uniforms.

 The temple of Zeus

 Good ole Rick guided us to a little neighborhood just below the Acropolis that looks like a mini Santorini. Gorgeous!

 Rick just said "keep going along the streets no matter how narrow they get!"

So much fun!

Dan got tired of his ears dragging in his food so he gave him a Cleopatra chop!
