We headed over to hit an overcroweded beach by way of a small taxi boat. The ride over was beautiful, the beach was too crowded to even get our towels deployed on the beach. So, after sitting/sunning on the rocks thinking a few lizard thoughts, we headed back over to the town.
This is the land of the 6 to 8 Euro cocktail, and the land of restauranteurs adding a bonus to the end of your meal with shots of free ouzo. I guess they figure if they get you started drinking, you’ll eventually pay the hefty price for the cocktails. It didn’t quite work for us, but they did get us to buy a cheaper beer to erradicate the taste of licorice.
We are starting to wear out on Greece and the tourism. Overpriced, crowded, and tacky… but great beaches (when you can find a spot, that is) and beautiful vistas of turquoise water.
… we are headed over to Crete to see what lays on that tourist mile… uh-oh in about 15 minutes.
Gotta dash…
