"The flip side to Hydra's environmentally friendly transportation policy is the presence of large amounts of what might be termed 'donkey exhaust', so watch your step when walking around."John accidentally stepped in a large yellow puddle on the way to breakfast this morning. It made me laugh pretty hard.
Today is Greece's general strike. We're going to spend it wandering around this unwheeled island, maybe get so tired we have to take a donkey taxi back home (unless they are ALSO on strike).I am continually surprised at the lack of noise on this island, especially after the hustle and bustle of Athens (though lucky for us we avoided the noise of the riots). With no cars, no trucks, no mopeds, no NUTHIN' except the occasional donkey bray, this island is almost EERILY quiet. We like eerie, so we're looking into spending five weeks here come the end of February.
Wheee!
pretty!!
