Mykonos

Mykonos is one of those places that I have dreamt about going to for so many years...so many years of watching the travel channel :) ! We arrived at 7pm and started walking around right away. Despite the darkness and despite the blowing rain I was so annoyingly excited to be there!

We went for a small dinner along the harbor realizing Mykonos isn't cheap and maybe it's just fine to only stay one night :) We then walked to 'Little Venice'--a quaint area, white washed as the rest of Mykonos, but right on the waters edge. We sat overlooking the water and watched the rain fall. Just perfect.

The hotel we stayed at was owned by the same family for many years. The man who showed us around to our room was the 80 year old father of the man who picked us up at the ship. The family was just so friendly and helpful. We made an early night and the next morning I was so excited that I couldn't sleep anymore. Knowing that we only had the one morning there (our next ship to Athens left at 2:15pm) I couldnt wait to get going!

Woke up at 6am..we ran down to the harbor because for that moment the rain had stopped and sun shone all over the hillside of the white washed buildings. We tried to take some self portrait pics here :) We had breakfast overlooking the sea, and spent the rest of the day wandering in and out of cute little shops. It. Was. Perfect. Now I can cross another one off my bucket list ;)

Here's a bunch of pictures... Love you and miss you all!
