Greco Land

I must say that after all the places Rose and I have seen, Greece is by far the nicest. We are staying here for just over a week, and have rented a little cottage at the beach. We have been staying for the past three days at a youth beach/resort/hostel in Agios Gordis and have decided to rent a lovely little place in a much quiter, nicer, un-touristed area called Pateokastritsa. We found it when we took our rented motorbikes up the mountains, beaches and all around the island. One day when i have 80,000 spare USD (which is the going rate apparently) i am going to buy a place here.. everywhere you turn is blue, green, and torqouise water, hills and lush green mountians. On our bikes we saw animals and wildlife, and incredible foliage. The people here even let us eat grapes, lemons and peaches from their fruit trees!! I am so glad we decided to come here. People here are very nice depite no one speaking a single word in English. Yesterday we had a mini celebration as we found Kellog's Corn Flakes and Green Giant string beans in the agora or market we are trying to find out if the Heinz products from UK are kosher. The best thing they sell here is corn on the cob roasted on an open pit with salt...and of course the ever-present reliable Coca-Cola Lite. Currently i am so sunburned i look like an enchilada, although this will probably turn to a deep chocolate by tomorrow. In case you are wondering about my partner, Rose is mochachino on our coffee-tanning scale. So with our trusty mopeds, quiet unpopulated beach island, and cheap English books, Rose and I have finally hit the vacation part of our trip. We are having the time of our lives.... Air Canada extension highly expected. Shabbat Shalom to all. Be happy. Be well. Be safe.
