Greece: Athens, Mykonos, Santorini, Ios

Greece - Athens, Mykonos, Santorini, Ios

Athens: Nerd alert: me. I went to the planetarium. Nobody there. I was so excited during the intro and the next thing I know the janitor is waking me up as I passed out for the whole show. Damn.
Saw the silly walk before departing - one of the guys fell. Video recorded
Mykonos- met some awesome Greek musicians, kostas and nick, on the ferry. Got drunk on uozo and rolled until 5. Stayed at my friends place - amazing.  I was the unofficial pool boy, foozeball, basketball court, pool, ping pong, majestic view.  Gorgeous, but maybe superficial people on Mykonos. Many liberal sunbathers. Italians. Played with Tarzan on the beach. Danced until 7 am the clubs.

Santorini: met some girls from minneapols - crazy! Slept outside on a mat both nights - nice. Most gorgeous sunsets of the caldera - Santorini surrounds a volcano and villages are high up on the rocks.
Ios: wow.  I stayed 5 days because it is so much fun. No sleep. Met amazing girls from Ukraine, Sasha and Victoria.  They will visit the US in the fall. Best beach, company, Greek salad, and seafood.  More fun bums than you shake a stick at.
Went tubing (Mach 1) with the Ukranians. 
Random donkey showed up to dinner knocking over potted trees - amazing.
This island is not for kids or families or relaxing.  
My liver is throbbing and looking forward to boat ride to sleep.

Baby powered is a Godsend this heat.  Did you know you can put it in your hair too?

Hair is getting long: people have been calling me either, Tom Cruise or James Blunt.  I guess that must mean I'm short and have a feminine like voice.

answers to your questions: yes, yes, Russian, more or less, and I'm thinking about it.
