Leaving for Paros

Packing for Paros was a bigger mission than we thought. During the week in Santorini we’ve accumulated so many things that we weren’t prepared to leave behind. We left everything in our room and went down to Fira to draw money and check our mails one last time.

We met the taxi at 2 just outside our hotel and drove off to Athinios Port to wait for our ferry to Paros. At the port we had lunch and watched Koreans sleep.

The ferry finally arrived at half past 3 and we boarded. The ferry wasn’t what I was expecting at all!!! It looked like a cruise ship inside. It was beautifully decorated and had cinema rooms, receptions, a gift shop, a few restaurants and one specifically that looks like Mc Donalds. Cool huh? The ferry trip was painless and just as we got really comfy we stopped at Paros. Unfortunately it was already dark when we arrived, but the little island looked very nice and welcoming.





We immediately found a place to stay and went to put down our bags. We walked around town a little and visited a very popular Greek Orthodox Church that was built 1600 years ago. We found a hotel restaurant just around the corner and had some delicious lamb shank, tzatziki and a greek salad. After dinner we went back home to drink a beer and just relax. We had a really nice little room with a balcony over looking the pool.
