Mikonos

Arrived at 1pm. Had to tender (take a ship from the ship) to shore. We took two taxis because we messed up with the first directions.  Ended up on Konos beech at the big blue bar and grill. Had a very relaxing day. Swam in the Aegean sea. Found some marble and granite rocks. Jen found some neat jewelry and a tshirt for me. The water was cool but no where near cape cod. 
Mikonos is a strange place.  All the houses are square white two story affairs closely packed together making walking from one point to another a great guessing game. I would move there in  New York minute.  The shop keepers are not as pushy and Mark's East India crap traders were no where to be seen.  The weather was gorgeous as it has been for all of our trip to date.
Back on the Spirit now heading toward Naples. But first a day at sea and hopefully a glimpse of the active volcano Stromboli tomorrow night off of Italy.
