On our second day in Mykonos we decided to go to the beach. Mainly because there wasn't much else to do. Now I don't really tan, and my delicate skin doesnt really like the sun, so although i have been in warm climates for about 3 weeks, I still look as pale as I did before I left. However, we wanted to check out the beach since they told us it was sand, and not rock. We headed down the hill...where I proceeded to FALL. Yep. It wasn't cute, but I made it look pretty graceful. The beach we went to was called Ornos--it was the one that was pegged for families mainly with a couple of beach bars and tavernas, but not blaring club music and super crowded like some of the more famous ones. Those were called Paradise and Super Paradise. LOL. (we were at this mini market buying more Mythos when this one girl was trying to buy bus tickets, and she's all, Can I have 2 tickets to Paradise? Of course I busted out laughing and then started to sing two tickets to paradise in my head)
The beach turned out to only be about 10 or 15 minutes away from town by bus, and it was really nice. It wasnt very crowded (it wasnt super hot in Mykonos--the winds actually started to kick up, so it was probably only about 80 with a breeze) and we were able to find this one beach bar called Ammos that had these super cushy lounge chairs, so for 5 euro you could chill out for as long as you'd like. We ended up getting coffees and hanging out with our umbrella and chaise lounges for a couple of hours. The water was really pretty and clear. There were some Geese swimming around and people were taking photos of them like they were Jesus Christ, however I forgot to photograph the geese. Oops.
After a few hours we jumped on the bus and headed back to the hotel. We picked up some food and walked up the treacherous hill. I also vowed not to wear the flip flops I fell in for the rest of my stay.
