After getting off the plane and gathering my bags, I headed towards the metro station to grab a subway ticket. I met a girl in line who was heading in the same direction that I was. We went down to the platform together to figure out which direction to go and which stop we needed. Turned out we were going to the same stop. As we were figuring it out, a guy asked where we were headed and he was also at the same stop. For the half hour train ride we all got to know each other. The girl had a ferry to catch that evening but the guy and I had the afternoon so decide to stick together and go see the sites.
We dropped off our bags at our different hostels and met up to venture up to Acropolis. What an amazing site! The architecture was stunning and while your up so high you have such a great view of the city. We kept swapping cameras so we could have some pictures and people kept asking us if we wanted a picture together. It became really funny, people thinking we were a couple and yet we had met only an hour prior.
After many pictures, we headed down and decided to grab a couple beer at my hostels roof top bar. I met a few Canadian girls and we all chatte until we went to bed at 10. The guy and I were on the same ferry the next day and had to be up at 5am. We had to go on the subway again and then onto a 4 hour ferry. I layed on the dirty floor and napped for a lot of the ride... Until a huge wave came over the boat and I was no longer able to lay on the floor as there were puddles everywhere.
Next stop was the Greek Island of Mykonos - known for its beaches and party life!
