Mykonos
WOW
After a 5 1/2 ferry ride we have arrived in mykonos and no dog in sight. It looks just like on the postcards.Very clean and tidy after Athens.White cube buildings. They are only allowed to build them to this design and they have to be painted white with one colour. Therea re 400 chuches on this island. When you die after 7 yrs you get dug up and given to your family. The churches are private beside family houses so you get reburied there.They are all very much the s ame. Very photogenic I thought. Saw the one monastry on the island and managed to get the monks photo. Starting to get cramp in m y trigger finger. This place is really amazing with its windmills, churches and houses. Its all about cats here. They seem to be all over. We went and had a trip to an island called Delos where the greek god Apollo came from. It is ruins (an outdoor museum.) It was amazing what was constructed in those days. The mosaic patterns were outstanding. So much work went into the statues etc.
