Le Mer Mediterranean

After a wonderful time with my family in Egypt, it was off again to visit one of the funnest people I know, my cousin Elsa in Greece. I was only there for 8 days but we had such a great time. After a few days in Athens, eating too many delicious Greek staples we boarded a huge ferry and headed to Sifnos, an island which is part of the Cyclades island group that also houses the ever so famous Mykonos.We stayed in the hotel kiki right in the harbor town of Kamares. If you ever want to live the absolute dream come here! We made friends with the local bartender, a Swedish girl who visited and made a connection with the owner and decided to stay. This girl swims and plays on the beach all day and then at night works at a beautiful bar that has beach access until about 4am, parties after that and then does it all again the next day. If that's not the life...I'm not sure what is.
One of the most memorable says we had was experienced via scooter as we explored the entire Island. It was so incredible!! I also learned that in Greece if you build a church on the land you own then you don't have to pay property tax...well guess how many churches we saw on this tiny island of just 90 sq. kilometers...quiet a few! We spent the whole day checking out every cove and crevasse we could and every had a few pit stops for kitchy shopping and ice cream.
