Well it has been an amazing, blistering hot day in Ios Greece. After spending a day touring Athens' major sites, Katherine and I headed off to Ios Greec- one of the Islands in Cyclades of southern Greece. With a promise of hot beach weather during the day and a rockin party island at night, this island was recommended to us by the hostel workers in Athens. We have 3 nights here at the cheapest hostel I've stayed at so far (8 euro a night) and then after an overnight ferry back to Athens and one last night in Athens, we'll say our goodbyes and go our separate ways. That is of course after a few party nights like last night. It feels a lot like spring break with the hoards of young people drinking poolside during the day in their swimsuits followed by clubbing at night. It is a lot of fun though unlike many who decide to stay for the season, 3 nights will be plenty for my taste.
Our last night in Athens consisted of a nice dinner out with our American roomies, Mike and Chris to this beautiful rooftop terrace restaurant which had an amazing view of the city. I had traditional Moussaka which was so delicious! Yesterday we took a 7 hour ferry from Pireaus (the port in Athens) here to Ios. We stopped at many little islands along the way all of which looked the same with little white houses climbing the hillside just as you would expect to see.
It is amazingly beautiful here and we are enjoying just lazing in the sun and hanging out.
Enjoy the Sunshine
