Another, much needed weekend off after a long week of homework :)
Its only Saturday but I've had such an amazing weekend already that I thought I would share now!
Last night we had another one of our famous Friday night feasts and boy was it good! We once again started with appetizers; Greek salad, fried feta cheese, bread and dips, and a delicious pork sausage with green peppers and a red sauce, and then finally after a few hours of wining and pre-dining, we enjoyed our full course meals. I decided on the Gyros this week. They were SO yummy. Marios told us we are going to schedule another feast for us because our group enjoys them so much ;) ha
Anyway, this morning I got up and took a walk down the boardwalk for coffee; the waves were small and quite relaxing. I found myself picking out books at one of the bookstores along the beach, luckily (? or not so lucky)..we have a nine hour flight from Paris to condone my much to large euro exchange with the bookstore lady!
From there, I started one of them next to the pool with Hilary :) we snacked, talked, read, and just enjoyed the sunshine!
For those of you that don't know, I really dislike ferry rides and small boats. BUT, a group of the girls (plus Tanner and Andrew) magically talked me into taking a "like five minute ride", according to Julie (more like 20 minutes in a really small board with 2 large non-English speaking Greek men) to Perissa. It's only just around the mountain point and has a beautiful black sanded beach. We sipped on ice cold drinks, laid in the sun... swam, walked the boardwalk. Some played volleyball.. and made the much faster (thanks to the waves) trip back to our home stretch of Kamari Beach. A really wonderful and relaxing day.
It's almost dinner time for us now, I'm sure most of us will enjoy a little something from our favorite spot; Navy's. (I featured it in one of my earlier assignment posts.)
Tomorrow I plan to spend my day shopping in Fira. I still need to find Adyson and Stella something fun to bring home. Another nice day in the city might just cap off the weekend :)
Miss you all. In exactly TWO weeks I'll be landing in Fargo. Love you!
Peace & Blessings!
