ahhh its officially been FOUR WEEKS since we left the U.S. We have done soo many amazing things I cant even keep it all together. And TWO MORE WEEKS to goooo!! yesssssss we are finally making it to the infamous islands. everyone we have met on this trip always talks about "the islands, the islands, the islands" so I'm so excited to actually see what its all abouttt!!!

but anywaysssssss we are off to a different part of Crete today called Plakias. our hostel is apparently tucked away in a little olive grove so it should be LEGIT! yesterday we slept until 1:30 in the afternoon... our day in the gorge killed us and we really havent slept in like 2 weeks so it was totally worth it. we rambled out of bed and meandered down to the beach with 2 guys from the hostel and spent the rest of the day there playing in the waves and lounging on the beach. it was niiiice. then last night we treated ourselves to a real meal at a restaurant and i actually felt full!! something i have not felt in a long time haha. afterwards, we got crepes... still not as good as the ones at food break and decided to find a pay phone to call our friends on Evia. it was sooo good to talk to them haha ahhhhhhh we miss them so muchhhh and talking to them made us miss them moreee... its sadddd.

BUTTTTT more adventures lay ahead!! we are loving every minute :)


ohhh and i cant really post any pictures up yet so I think you guys can look up the Somaria Gorge on google images... its really amazing!!!!!!



FUN FACTS ABOUT GREECE:
1. in a majority of the bathrooms we have encountered we have to throw the toilet paper in the trash can, not in the toilet.
2. all the policemen are soooo hottt and young and yes me gusta
3. the "you can cross the road" signals last for a total of like two seconds and they dont really give you a warning like "ohh 10 seconds left" so usually you are left stranded in the middle of the road when it switches back to red and then made to sprint awkwardly to the other side
4. siesta is really really really inconvenient
5. fanny packs are cool




well our bus leaves in 45 minutes, BACK ON THE ROADDD....
