Hi all,
Well we arrived in Mykonos by ferry. Was a really good ride - no one got sea sick!!
First night we went out for a local dinner which was very good. We then attempted to go to a few clubs. Unfortunately the greek debt crisis has significantly impacted the island of Mykonos coz most of the major night spots (Space, Cavo Paradiso etc) were all closed until July - very dissappointing. However we found a few bars and partied through the night.
The next day we lay around by the pool and recovered. We headed to Tropicana club at Paradise beach and enjoyed a few cocktails. Again the effects of this struggling economy was clearly noticeable as the place was fairly empty - unlike 6 years ago when you struggled to find a spot on the beach. Nonetheless we still had fun. Ben and Kat mets some Aussie guys who were staying at our hotel and had a few drinks with them.
We are leaving now for Venice - so excited haven't seen this city yet!! Tomorrow we have a wine tour booked and then shopping!! Bring on the italian leather......
I hope the Greek economy can recover soon as these islands are fantastic and should be enjoyed by everyone. I recommend
Talk to you soon
p.s. The Pink Pelicans have left the island of Mykonos - not sure where they went... must of realised the country is struggling
p.p.s. I posted photos of Santorini and Rome. I will post more from Mykonos, Madrid (Tania and Hayden) and also London (Ben and Kat).
