Day 3: Mykonos

I don’t even know where to start with this day. So many incidents that overtook my life occurred on this day.


The 24hour café that isn’t 24hours

There’s this café at Mykonos, which is supposed to be 24hours but its barely open 12 hours a day. I took pictures of it when it was closed to claim its not 24 hours. This café also has the worst coffee on the island. I can’t believe we kept going back to it. I suppose it was so we can check “J” out. And yes “J” was sitting at the café again this morning.

The Beach

The aim of the day was to relax on the beach. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN. We headed to Platis Gialo beach and it was all down hill from here. This beach is supposed to be where all the famous stars go to when they visit Mykonos. We managed to settle down on those comfortable chairs again. As usual we ended up paying 7 euros for the bloody thing. In Australian dollars that’s $14.WTF?

The Sand Storm

I was trying to relax on the beach when a sand storm struck. Covered in sand and spitting out bits and pieces of sand I was annoyed as hell.There was no way anyone could deal with this sand storm. it was too strong and felt like my skin was being ripped off everytime the wind took off.

The Woman and the “Dog”…

I don’t know if I should even mention this. I was disgusted with the whole show. The entire show was indeed sickening. Whilst trying to rescue my eyes from the sand storm I managed to damage my eyes even further when I turned to my right. I blame my friend for pointing this out. What type of a sick person shows me something like this? I didn’t know where to look or what to do.

I was disgusted and wanted to vomit somewhere. There was a woman lying down with a dog sucking on her nipples. She had her tits hanging out of her bikini with a dog sucking on them. Who goes to the beach with their dog sucking on their nipples? I don’t think I should go onto what else happened at the beach but lets just say there are some sick people out there.


The Exchange Woman

I don’t think I have mentioned the exchange woman previously but she played a major role in our lives while we were at Mykonos. The exchange woman who works at the money exchange walked passed us today and said hi. We said hi to her and then turned to each other and asked who the hell was that. Locals are starting to recognise us and we can’t even seem to spot them. At some point the exchange woman told us off but ill save that for later.

The Bad Pita Roll

I’ve never had sooo much pita in my life but this one was the end of the pita obsession. It was so greasy that I thought I drank a whole bottle of vegetable oil or something. I don’t think I can even look at another pita roll for sometime.

The Perfect Photo Opportunity

After buying another 4 oil painting it was time to head back to the hotel for some siesta. As we were walking up the hill I saw a perfect photo opportunity. So I decided to enter someone’s driveway. Actually I think it was a hotel. Anyway I wandered in with my camera ready to get a perfect shot of Mykonos sunset when this German Shepard started racing towards me. I didn’t know which direction to run to. I thought it was going to attack me. I tried running back but I couldn’t as I had beach thongs on. We just got back from the beach. I was racing uphill trying to get away from this dog and everyone was laughing at me instead of doing something about it. Anyway the moral of the story I missed out on my perfect Mykonos photo.
