A Vacation from Our Vacation

We just notice...the last title should have been "Greetings from Athens"

Notos  Resort on Skiathos

Saturday
This morning we awoke to the sound of the front desk ringing to tell us to get up. It was 6:00 in the morning. We took a cab to get on our flight to Skiathos. Our plane was notably small and only held about 36 people. It was interesting, because it was moved by propellers, not jets, and you could see the underside of the wings while looking out the window. It would be nerve wracking to most, but we were now experienced flyers and were ready to face anything.

After we landed we took a taxi up to the top of the hill to check in. We got down the hill by taking some beautiful stairs that wound in and around the hotels villas. Then we went down to the beach and ate lunch. Anneke played in the sand and Chloe went beachcombing. We hopped a ride with a hotel employee back up to our room. After that we just relaxed. Anneke went in the pool, but didn’t stay long, before her body got numb. We walked back down the hill to the Taverna and had a very odd dinner. It consisted of omelettes, fish(or beans) and cake. It was queer, but we enjoyed it.
