Day trips, islands, and families

I havent updated in a while. heres what has happened.

After we got back from Italy the next day we took a trip with Aphro to Peloponnese. We saw the Corinth Canal, Corinth, and then stopped for the night in Monemvasia which is beautiful. Its this cute little island town in Greece and there is a castle at the top of the island. We climbed up there and it was very windy. We ate a delicious dinner and slept in the hotel for the night. The next morning we went to Sparta, and then Olympia. The drive was long so we got there at like 6pm. We stayed in a hotel and then the next morning we went and explored ancient Olympia. The birthplace of the Olympics. that was cool and a bunch of us ran on the "track". Then we headed back to Athens.
We got back on a Friday night so we had Saturday and Sunday to do whatever we wanted and i Cant really remember what we did.

The next weekend after that we went to Andros Island. There were 8 of us that went. We got up early to catch a bus to the port and then jumped on a ferry to Andros. We sat on top and it was a bit chilly. When we got there we got on a bus to take us near our hotel. We found it and then we got our stuff together and went to the beach. But it was rather cold. Everyone decided to go walk around the town but Kate, heather and I wanted some sun so we stayed but the sun kept going behind clouds. Then we met back up and went to the hotel to shower. Then we watched the sunset which was beautiful. It was my first sunset in Greece and I can't wait for many more at the islands! Then we went to eat dinner and it was nice. Then we went to sleep. The next morning we hopped a bus to Andros Town and explored there and found this arch way near the rocks and water. It was cool and we climbed around on the rocks for a while. We met this lady named Flora and she was showing us sea urchins. And then she took lots of pictures of us which was nice of her. Then we laid on the beach for a little again it was just kate and heather and i. We met back up and headed back to the bus so we could go back to Batsi where our hotel was. We grabbed some food and took the bus to the port to ride the ferry back to Athens. It was a good weekend over all and nice to get a taste of whats to come in the islands.

The next weekend (this past weekend). We had a friday trip to Mycenae which was pretty boring. Sorry Aphro. At night I got to meet up with my sister and brother in law! they came to visit Greece. They stayed in Athens from Friday to Monday and then they were off to see some islands. They took Kristy, Heather and I out to dinner friday night. That was awesome we ate in Monastiraki. The next day I showed them all the touristy stuff to see in Athens such as the Acropolis. We went out to dinner and just hung out. The next day we saw more touristy stuff and explored Plaka and shopped for a little. Then we met up with my friends to go to the Olympic Stadium and see a soccer game. It took forever to figure out how to get there. We did and got tickets for the game and explored the complex where the 2004 Olympics were held. That was pretty sweet. Then we went back to Athens and I said goodbye to Deb and John. Thanks for coming guys!

Monday I went to the beach with Heather but I was in a bad mood because I lost my keys to the apartment when my bag ripped at the stadium the night before.
Tuesday and Wed we had class. Today I had class and went to the beach with some friends after.

TOMORROW IS PARIS. I am so excited. I will definitely write about that when I get back. That's all for now.
