Surprise Upgrade in Naxos

It was a short ferry ride from Peros to Naxos, only about 45 minutes on the water. We learned from our trip from Santorini, and Lori and Mike grabbed a table at a cafe close to our gate. We sat in the shade and waited in comfort. We were in the last group to board the ferry, but as we had assigned seating, it didn't really matter. The best part is so much less pushing. Naxos looks beautiful from the port with the Temple of Apollo so close. We arrived at the hotel with a large group but they were very organized and offered us cold drinks and a place to sit while we waited. The drive from the port seemed to take forever, and we were worried we were far from the waterfront. In reality, it was only a 10 minute walk through a vibrant city center. When they called our names, we were told we had received an upgrade and to please follow George. Out the side door into an alley up the small road and up a few stairs, and here we are. Wow, we had a lovely brand new suite with a huge patio on the alley. It really was so nice. We took some time to settle in before we headed out to do some exploring. It was an interesting walk to the waterfront, and we had a nice afternoon wandering around. There were so many boats, and Mike and Lori booked a trip on a 51-foot Dufour for the next day. We had dinner in our neighborhood at a family run Taverna and enjoyed sitting out on our patio.もっと詳しく
