Advice for Greece
Hey guys! Great work with the blogs as usual :) You have definately found your calling - do a journalism course and you will make millions hehe. Just some advice for Greece - if your going to take a Taxi anywhere, agree on the price BEFORE he takes you there, they are the worst for being ripped off. Also if you go to Mykonos ask around for a bus to the beaches, they depart from a cafe where you buy tickets, and go to a beach called Paradise Beach - its incredible! The bus ride is an experience in itself you dont know whether you're going to get their alive :) If you do go to the beach as soon as you walk through and get to the sand part turn to your left and go right across until you see hot pink chairs - you normally have to pay to use them but say your with Trafalgar tour (if they question you) and you get them for free. Also if little philipino guys or gals come around asking for massage...GET ONE! The best massage ive ever had in my life for 10 Euro! I was a bit bruised the next day hehe but it was unbelievable. Thats really it - the Greece are the friendliest lot and soooo much history as well! I hope you like oily food too :) Talk soon, Luv Court.
