Memories
My friend recommended Amorgos for me a couple years ago and I did a brief solo trip, staying in a cave house in Chora. I agree with the monastery and windmills (at sunset for me) were the highlights, as well as a couple of hikes I did. I absolutely loved it there and would love to go back. It is definitely a hidden gem! Loving your humour in these posts, was drawn in by the 'mafia' issues on the next island.

Thanks so much for reading, and sounds like you had good experiences in Amorgos too. We thought Chora was fantastic. We hadn’t heard of either Amorgos or Astypalea, so we’ve got the organisers of the art tour to thank. Certainly a bit off the usual tourist path.

Yeah, we sort of got bookended into a long time away - wedding at one end and art tour at the other. All fascinating places. Thanks for reading.

What a saga to just get to a viewpoint! I really liked this place, but we had a local guide walking with us - which probably ensured all other hasslers stayed away. I was going to say hope you have more photography luck for the rest of your stay, but I see you left Morocco soon afterwards. I'm slowly catching up on your travels... :)

Certainly was a bit intimidating being pulled up by none too friendly guys in uniform two days in a row. Did you have any similar experiences?

The no-photography thing is rather odd! I can only think that there was some royal or military link within range of your camera. Thankfully there were many beautiful gates to make up for not getting that one. I really love their keyhole arch architecture, and that one in the Jewish quarter caught my eye too :)

Those monkey eyes!
Missed out on seeing these barbary macaques when we were there :( And yes I think I would have had a similar reaction about the aircon tents! I'm pretty sure guides need to be accredited in Morocco, and sounds like this one needs to hand her accreditation back :)

I’ve got a nasty feeling the guide might have lost her job after I posted a none to pleasant review.

What an insane blog...zillions of neatly lined beach umbrellas...what an insane picture of sardine beach! Insane is an understatement. That's not a resort...that's a George Orwell 1984 canning factory!!!
