Greece Day 3

Well Well. Day3. Day 3 consisted of 7hours on a ferry! how exciting. It did give us a chance though to meet everyone in the family and chat and of course sleep. This is my friend and I on the boat.


The boat ride consisted of: coughing because of smoke, napping on tables, weird greek burgers, internet, more coughing, BEAUTIFUL scenery, ocean waves, new friends, giggles and more sleeping.

zzzzzzzzzzz

Once we finally arrived to Santorini we took a bus to the TOP and when I say top I mean top. It was a scary bus ride but very worth it for the view and for the location we headed to. Right when we got off the bus we all ran to our hotel rooms and put on our bathing suits to head to the beach and see this!

That's right black sand! How cool hu!? I had never seen black sand before. Then more of this went on.

So after the swimming and picture taking we headed back to the hotel to get our faces on(make-up) and get all cute to head to the capitol, Fira I believe it's called.

After this was taken we had dinner at a cute spot on a hill over looking an amazing view. Once the eating was done(I got a bacon and ham crepe, yummm!) we all met up with spiros!!! We had one big bar hopping night of 100 of us! We pretty much packed each place we went to, curious? here's a picture of it

pretty nuts hu? It was like this everywhere we went.Bar hopping that night was insane. It consisted of: dancing, more dancing, alcoholic beverages, more dancing, yelling, walking, more walking, bars, jumping, laughing, and pretty much more alcohol and more dancing. Lets just say it was an amazing first night in Santorini!

I forgot to show you the beautiful view we had in Fira, i'm so mean. So here you go!



The night pretty much ended with a hangout at the beach and some more laughing and drinking.

enjoy! day4 consists of sailboating to the different islands of Santorini, now that was amazing!

Greece Day 2

Well well. Day 2 was one big educational tour. We went into downtown Athens where we gained lots o' knowledge! We actually passed by where the riots had taken place a week before and saw all the flowers that were left outside of the bank that were bombed, pretty sad. After that we stopped at the very old Olympic site where a man ran in full armor.
(Olympic site, and me!)
After that we headed to the Parthenon! It was surreal being there. I don't think I realized how cool it would be to see til I was actually there, standing there looking up at it. It was an amazing experience.

After we had the chance to see that, we basically had about 5hours of free time and ran around Athens and shopped! woowhoo My new family and I had our first gyro, which was bangn! I cant even explain how good the Gyro was and all the food

I bought a lot of shizz for my family and a few things for myself. They sell tons of bracelets over there so obviously I had to get a lot of them.

But enough of the shopping. After that we all headed to the Hard Rock restaurant where we finally met/completed our new family. Lets just say our first night in Greece at the Hard Rock was one to remember forever! So many drinks and the start of the jager bombs and fails made it's way into our lives. There was moon walking(me of course) yelling, food throwing, boy talking, giggling, falling down, 8year old boys selling roses, ouzo(yuck), greek flag shots, and my favorite, drunk purse/watch shopping!

Greek Family. sorry to the guys that were cut out. oopsie (photo courtesy of a greek family member )

After that picture we all headed to a sweet bar! It had colored bottles everywhere. Here's a picture of it.


This bar was a lot of fun and all of us really got to know each other this night. My friend had I had a greek flag shot that was really yummy. It was something blue(I think ouzo) then baileys then blue again. The baileys is what made it delicious. After we took crazy pictures and bought roses from a little greek boy it was time to stumble our way back to the bus where we all started the chant of spiros(our amazing tour guide) and hugged him and yelled his name even more and then began the OPA craze. I'm pretty sure we were annoying but hey we had fun!!

We then headed back to the hotel in Gylfada to sleep(kinda) since we had to wake up at 5am. horrible I KNOW!

Here are some more pictures of that night.





Day 3 coming at ya soooon!
