Red Beaches, Ouzo and our Cast of Characters

Hello Peeps--
Sorry for the absence, someone was utilzing our office yesterday and we were unable to log on to send an update.

Yesterday we had a day packed with activity. And since we've been at the hotel for awhile now we have names for some of the people we see all the time. There is a lady we call Red who spends every waking moment in the sun by the pool. There's mr. snoring man who posts up by the pool and snores a lot. and then there's the tranny girl, who we saw when we were out a the beach area and i swore she was a man. Later we came to find out she was staying at our hotel. Oops. Hence the tranny girl nick name. There's also pretty girl who thinks she is the bomb and there's a girl we call LOC because she looks like Laura from far away. LOC is friends with Right Said Fred--we're not sure if it's her dad or her mom's new bf.... Anyway, we also stayed in and drank at the hotel bar and now we know all the staff. They kept giving us Ouzo, which by the way tastes like crap. Actually it tastes like black licorice so it might as well be crap. We also met up with our friend Captain Morgan last evening.

During the day we took the bus to the red beach. After a 10-15 minute hike from the bus stop we finally got there. It was pretty nice, except there was this really strange seaweed that felt like mulch that covered most of the places where the chairs and umbrellas were set. We tried to take photos but it didnt work out very well. You can't see the consistency of the mulch/seaweed.

We also ate lunch at this random fish cafe where the were cleaning the fishes they caught right next to the water. They caught a couple of sharks and a skate. Fascinating really...We wanted to take pics with the fish, but we got shy.

We've also found our theme song for the trip. I don't yet know the name but it is a Greek song that sounds like Walk the Line so we call it Yanni Cash...

BTW did anyone see the VMAs?? we saw the photos on line and Britney looks like a hot ghetto mess. Someone make her unfamous please.

Today we'll be heading to Oia to our other hotel for the evening. I'll be back in a day or so to send an update. Take care of yourselves.

Alright we'll see you soon.

Until Next time.

Yes, ouzo is nasty ass! I hate black licorice, therefore I wasn't a fan. Cool that you tried it!

I was totally thinking of you yesterday, as I caught up on my trash TV watching. Rock of Love is just hysterical...CC DeVille, Jr., Red Avril Lavigne and the slutty old stripper are the last ones standing trying to win Bret's heart! But as we know, every rose has its thorn...hysterical. Britney IS a mess. Ah, good times...

Hope you both have fun in Oia!

Best line of the night.

Comedian Sarah Silverman also showed no mercy. She took to the stage when the performance was over, declaring that the singer's young children were "the most adorable mistakes you'll ever see."
