We've just returned from a bus ride from Fira--a little hot and crowded, but totally fine. So that's where it started to look like the Greece from the postcards. Funny thing is that you don't see all the touristy shops and restaurants from the postcards. However it was really pretty--we posted up at this cafe and had beer and a light snack and just looked at the water. It was lovely.
The town is pretty confusing because there are not street names or signs. So you just have to use businesses as landmarks to find out where you are going.
We've decided that it is better to stay away from the tourist part and are embracing the pool at our current hotel.
Plus we've booked a hotel in Oia for tomorrow night to see another part of the island. So we'll see how that all transpires.
We're going to the pool now. Catch you peeps later.
Logging out. Until next time...

Lu,
You whickety whack girl. I have let your posts pile up so that I could read a whole bunch of them in a row. As always, you crack me up. Glad to hear things are looking up. This is what vacay is about...the good, the bad and the ugly. But even the stinkiest day in Greece beats EA, doesn't it??? haha.
I'm sad to report that Britney Spears opened the VMA awards tonite, and it was so bad, I felt sorry for her. I don't know how she will show her hair extensions in Hollywood ever again. Awful. Hope you get to see in over there, some how. I'm sure YouTube has it already.
Take care.
