Ok, so weve only been here for one afternoon and we slept a few hours of it away but Naxos is so beautiful! We decided this is a perfect honeymoon location...
Athens was fun but really a dirty city... We went to the Parthenon the Erechtheion and all of the other ruins in the area... We learned (the hard way) which way is North on the compass... We thought we were going South and ended up far far North of where we started... luckily we were able to find someone heading to the metro and he took us and showed us the ropes... Now we know which way is North and South on the compass :) It was nice walking the non-touristy areas of the city and seeing what real athens looks like :)
Naxos is amazing... our hostel is awesome... we have a balcony and stayed up last night playing cards and drinking local vino... which comes in a liter plastic water bottle and costs a whopping 4US dollars... you know im in love here!! the greek food is pretty comparable to what weve had in the states... everything is delicious and when i get home im going to figure our how to make "mousaka" YUM!!!
Today we have rented a moto bike and are going to explore the many beaches of Naxos and then head into the mountains to a kitron distillery... What a way to turn 30!!!
