missing delft...

2 euro wines and great company!

Saturday, August 13, 2005

When we arrived at Mykonos island, we were not greeted by a crowd of hotellers...we were supposed to be picked up by a bus to our hostel or hotel, but none were in sight save for a mini bus that read 'campsite'...anyway, after a call, they came to pick us up...wait a minute...wasn't that the bus that we had seen? er...we booked at a resort...not a campsite...maybe they just shared the bus...

Little did we know that it was a campsite that we had booked...a resort alright...a campsite resort...we were next to the beach no doubt, but our 'rooms' were actually safari tent like things...and they were charging us 54 euros for 3 beds per night! On the internet we had booked a 3 bed room...they were pushing it a little too far...never stay at Paradise Beach Resort.

Anyway we slept for a few hours after checking in at noon since our ferry ride was in the morning. The room was like a sauna...we were sweating like pigs when we woke up...

We then took a bus to the city area and explored...

We at last came across the restaurant that the guide book recommended. Good calamari...good fish...good octopus pasta...reasonable service...nice albatrosses and kittens close by to entertain us...

At night, we went to the Little Venice for drinks cause the girls wanted to see how it was like to be in a gay nightlife district...they were pretty disappointed as we didnt see many...or so we thought...
