If there was ever a place on this journey that I had to miss the ship, and get left behind, this would be it! Mykonos was definitely one of my favorites by far. Unfortunately we only had from 7am to 12 at port, so we were forced to wake up at the crack of dawn, and be among the first people off. I grabbed my English breakfast tea, and an orange and we hiked up this hill to this wonderful viewpoint. All the homes and buildings in Mykonos are white, and the harbor is beautiful. This was the Greece I had been waiting for, little windy streets, with white houses, blue windows, and pots filled with red and yellow flowers. There were little old ladies hanging their clothes to dry and little cars and scooters racing by. This little town is amazing, and I really wish I could have stayed a week. There was a group of us, who shopped along the narrow streets, walked along the seaside, and then had an incredible lunch. Probably the best Greek food I have ever tasted. We shared tsatziki, hummus, pita, calamari, Greek salad, and baked feta, it was so fresh, and the best part was the café looked out onto the ocean. Mykonos also has these nice windmills sitting on the cliff, and beautiful big white pelicans, that you can get really close to! The beach was beautiful too, and I could have wandered around all day if I had more time! Also saw where they filmed the Borne Identity!! I love Greece!
