Santorini is heaven. Its a good thing I didn't come here first or a probably would have never left! I finally made it to Santorini on Wednesday, after waiting from 5am-10:30am at yet another port, waiting for the same ferry that was late to Crete as well! Stupid FB Preveli (the boat's name). I met some Canadian girls on the ferry and so we spent the day together exploring Fira (the Island's largest city...though large by no means), and guess what? I rode a donke...

...yes, so I went for a hike! In total it was 12.8 km (the longest gorge in Europe!), and the terrain changed all the time. The first about 4 km were down this incredibly rocky slope, and then it was through a bit more easy walking forest, and then the last 6 or so km were actually through the gorge, so you were walking through everything from sand to loose rocks to really big rocks. The walls of the gorge are soooo high (at times as high as 600 m) and at one poi...

Eep! Its been a while since I last updated! I think is was in Athens when I last wrote somthing.... Well from Athens I took a ferry to Mykonos, which is apparenlty suppose to be (one of) the biggest party islands in Greece. Which, wasn't much of a thrill to me - but it is a really nice island not to far from Athens so it is a good place to begin the island hopping. So I arrived in Mykonos at 12:30 am and the only budget accomodation is camping - so I went to Pa...

Ola Amigos, So I'm back in Athens for the day before I take off to the Islands! My boat to Mykonos leaves at 8:00pm tonight, arriving on the island at midnight - so I am just killing time today as I only have $10 for the whole day (including food)...stupid bank! Trying to think of where I was last time...in Tripolis! So yes, I finally got my bus from Tripolis to Olympia which took about 2 1/2 hours. It was the most insane bus ride you can ever imagine. I'm pret...

I have found free, unlimited internet! Unfortunatly it comes at the price of being stuck in a bus stop in Tripoli, which from the few hours I have spent walking around, I think is kind of like the Oshawa of the Pheloponesse! I was trying to catch a bus to Olympia from Tripoli so I left Nafplio at 8:30am...only to get here at 10:00am and find out that the bus to Olympia didn't leave until 6:30pm. Meaning, I could have taken the 4:30 bus from Nafplio, which I chose...
