I'm actually settling into this whole "relaxing" thing....admittedly, my foot still twitches while sitting still...but it's a much slower tempo, and I took a full 90+ minutes to eat breakfast, unlike the US, no one minds a table that lingers... It's the norm, you tend to get odd looks when you're in and out quickly, not when you sit....it's taken a bit of getting used to, but, I am getting there!! (not having a particular place I need to be at a given time certainly helps in this endeavor =] ) that, two frappes (yes, they wired me...even made my hands shaky, but they were yumalicious!) and I filled out a few postcards...(hope you get them! The mailbox said something about international to Europe...I took it with a grain of salt, mostly because I have yet to see a post office, figure it'll get to you...eventually) booked another night so now I'm officially here through the full moon party....booking another night consisted of seeing our curator driving up the hill on his scooter, and a hand shake mid street. (adore the level of trust/life on a hand shake way of being!)
Met a jeweler today, his window had "Boca Raton" in the display...I giggled out loud, which led to a conversation about South Beach, the club scene, food..among other topics. Funny guy...though he's Greek by lineage, he's proud of his New York roots, and claims America as his country...see, the all the world doesn't hate us after all!
After a bit of prompting I convinced the madre to try a new restaurant, she's content to be "a regular" at a place she likes...I figure if I'm here I want to experience as much as possible with the time I have...glad I won out, liked the food way more today than yesterday!
Ate dinner for the first time since being in Greece...maybe I'll adjust to the time change after all....maybe. The sunset was clouded over (boo) still a gorgeous red peaking through the cloud cover. Really excited to see the famous Santorini sunsets!
Tickets booked for the ferry to Santorini, still looking into the hotel options...there are so many to choose from!! I feel a bit overwhelmed, if you've been before and have at the least a town recommendation..HELP.
Full moon (party) Tuesday =]
