Day 4 Athens to Mykonos

An amazing day leaving Athens at 8 am for the port to catch the ferry to Mykonos. There were possibly 2000 people on the boat which required major logistics getting everyone on and then off at a number of islands. The ferry was huge and thankfully our tickets included seat numbers. However it was dwarfed by the massive cruise ships parked up at Mykonos. We were met and taken to our lovely hotel above the main town. The rest of the day was spent wandering the endless lanes, looking in shops and taking endless photos as every corner was a new view of the town and the Mediterranean. All so beautiful and so clean. The 24 degree weather was also very pleasant but it was extremely windy. There were people everywhere and also motorbikes. The roads are definitely one lane but buses full of tourists were able to manoeuvre their way into town. Needless to say walking to our hotel on the side of the road was treacherous. We loved our first day in the Greek Islands.Read more
