Hydra

Today we woke up VERY early, at like 7:30. I am sooooo wiped now, but we still need to go out and pay Geoff a visit. It is also raining here in Athens. Not cool.

But something that was very cool today was the Island of Hydra. We took and awesome high speed ferry called a hydrofoil to Hydra. It took about 1.5 hours. It is a small island with one very unique aspect, there is no cars or motorbikes/scooters allowed on the island. The only vehicles allowed are a few public service trucks like a garbage truck (the only vehicle we saw). All of the rest of the trasport is done by donkey/mules/ponies. It was a very nice place to just wander around, looking in people's courtyards and stuff. We played alot of Uno and ate really good pizza. We also visited the Hydra Historical Museum. It was pretty cool. There also had a very cool place to go swimming, you could swim into a cave, but we didn't bring out suits. It was a gorgeous day, we were sweating in the sun. We met an guy from Calgary and a guy from Ireland. They both said Hydra was their favorite island, but mine is still Santorini. Well... thats about all for now. I need like a week to rest my knee... it is still killing me and I am scared I am wrecking it.

Geoff.... here we come!!
