Grecian Cruise (9-24-08)




Today was my favorite day in Greece. We spent basically the whole day on a boat while we traveled to three different islands: Poros, Hydra, and Aegina respectively. This is how I viewed Greece before I got here. I thought it would all be like Greece in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. I sure was wrong. These islands were so cute with their white and blue buildings and all the donkeys just waiting to carry you up the hill. Going to the islands was not the best part, though. The best part was the cruise around. For starters, we got a meal! And we got to eat first. That was awesome, because the people in Greece eat a late lunch. When I say late lunch, I mean that our tour guide would look at us like we were crazy when we asked, "How much longer 'til lunch? It's past 1:00!" That is still not the best part. Here it is. Are you ready for this?... We learned how to Greek dance! It was so much fun! After we were taught how, a man and two women came out and did a whole show for us. They were so good. I loved it!
