Dreams come true
Its way too early in the morning.... We some how decide to get up and drag ourselves to have breakfast next to the 24hour cafe. At this stage I can still feel the Vodka and OJ from space bar, even though I had alittle bit of it. Feeling half asleep we decide to order breakfast and some how end up with a feast.
It was meant to be a simple order, Nagasaki decided to skip breakkie again and have lunch with pasta. I wanted the breakfast menu which came with Coffee, toast, ham and cheese crossiant and juice on top. I wanted to explain to the waitress that I don't eat ham and if I can have the crossiant with cheese and tomato instead. This is where it got complicated. A simple instruction turned into a breakfast nightmare.
The waitress approached us and we ordered the above. The waitress than informed us that they have no crossiants left. Shock horror! So I try and explain that I don't want ham. She gets confused, I get confused, 15 minutes later I end up with a whole plate of cheese and tomato sandwiches along with toast, coffee and OJ.
Hitting into our feast I decide to explain this weird dream I had last night to Nagasaki.
The night before I had a dream that Nagasaki and I were walking along the Mykonos town streets talking about how the $40 dollar woman was missing. There were 2 soldiers in front of us who overheared the entire conversation and asked us who was missing. They took us to the police station to do a report, but because we didn't know the $40 dollar womans name we had to take them to the shop.
This is when we find out that the $40 dollar woman has been arrested for fraud. They then question us on why we wanted to find her. We tell them that we wanted to buy oil paintings from her store. They open the shop for us and we ran in like lunatics and start arguing over three oil paintings that we didn't even want. Somewhere along there I wake up and realise THIS IS A SIGN!!!
We both agree that this is a sign and decide to head over to the $40 dollar womans shop to see if she's open. She's been closed since we arrived so we don't have much hope of her opening shop.
Camera's in one hand we head to the $40 dollar woman's shop. Were a few metres away from her shop when we spot one of her shop doors open. We shove each other out of the way as if we are competing in a marthon and storm towards the shop in a mad panic. As we approach the shop the $40 dollar woman walks out and we nearly run smack bang into her sending her across the town centre.

To avoid a collision we take a VERY sharp left and head down the narrow alley towards the water front cafe which is called Little Venice. We stand there admiring the view and pretend to take photos while we are secretly watching the $40 dollar woman. We notice that she's closing her doors again.We panic at the thought that she's closing shop again. We start to plot in the alley. Nagasaki grabs the camera and walks up and down her shop trying to take random pictures of the $40 dollar woman without making it obvious.

This alley became like the most significant place on earth for us. The $40 dollar woman noticed that we were stirring something and kept opening and closing her doors. Who keeps opening and closing her shop. She must of been indecisive on whether to open or not. Even that or she remembered us from last year. Recap from 2004 - She closed the shop when she saw us walking towards it.
This was a huge tease for crying out loud. Who opens and closes their door fifty times teasing us like that. The $40 dollar woman is a shop teaser. She teases you on whether she's opening or closing her shop. If you want a good tease, go to the $40 dollar woman!

So the next 10 minutes we watched her and she watched us. She kept walking in and out of the shop. We kept walking up and down her shop.
At one stage she went into the sarong shop next to her after closing her shop but came back to her shop to re-open.
After the whole fuss we managed to capture her on our camera and felt satisfied. One more down in the photos department.
After this satisfying moment it was now time to track down our mate Johnny who worked at a supermarket. We stroll to the otherside of the town where Johnny claims he works. The night we had coffee with him he pointed towards a super maket. For some stupid reason we deicide to patrol the streets until we find this supermarket. Things I have to do for Nagasaki. We kept wandering into supermakets with our cameras trying to find the correct one to get a picture of Johnny.
The Cafe Kickout
After an hour we collapse at the cafe we had coffee with Johnny. We have failed our mission. I think we have hit every super market in town and my legs are killing. We manage to settle down in this cafe for some peace and quiet.
Well that only happened for a split second when a bunch of Asians that were set on loose started to cause a scene behind us. There was a huge group of them complaining about something. They were causing a fuss about something. We find out that the waiter is trying very hard to take the order only for the Asians to winge about everything.
Mind you theses group of asian were older than my parents. Its beyond me what they were doing at Mykonos. They were practically yelling at the poor waiter who was trying to take their order. Apparently one of them was trying to order a cuppucino with alittle froth while another lunatic was trying to order an iced coffee with little ice cubes rather than big ice cubes.
Apparently the big ice cubes make the coffee too cold. This is when the waiter cracks and starts grabbing their menu while yelling "THANK YOU! BYE BYE!!" The stupid Asians got kicked out of the cafe for being annoying. They all got up and stormed out muttering something. They should all be slapped and tossed out of that cafe, Stupid inconsiderate people, holding up our order.
We sat at the cafe planning our next move...
