In front of the Mirtos sunset: me, Sam, Anita, and Katie
Currently sitting in an internet café waiting for our ferry to Santorini from Crete. So excited to see Santorini, it’s supposed to be one of the most beautiful islands!
Last night was great too! We had dinner at this restaurant by the sea and we got to see the moonrise again. It was a full moon last night so it was just gorgeous watching it come up through the colors of the sunset over the water. While we ate dinner the US was playing in the World Cup so we watched a bit of that. Then we just hung around in our hotel room before going to bed.
This morning we went to two sites: Lato and Malia, and a little port town for lunch. The sites are all running together to me, at least on Crete. The majority of them are Minoan or very early Classical and honestly they just look like a bunch of rocks to me. But our professor is efficient and the scenery is beautiful so it’s not so bad. Plus we have mini bus rides between stops that I can close my eyes or listen to music to rest so I have more energy.
The town we had lunch in was very cute, right on the water. My roommates: Katie, Sam, Anita and Justine and the other group of girls we hang out with: Kate, Gillian, Ann Marie, and Nancy came with us. I like the dynamic of this class a lot more because I have my closest friends, my roommates, so we can hang out a lot. But we also come together as a big group pretty well, only one or two odd balls. So we can have a big group, us nine, or just us five.
We’re having a great time together, hopefully I’ll be able to write tomorrow!
