Mykonos, Greece

From Zakynthos, we took a flight to Athens, followed by another flight to Mykonos. There was no direct flight between Zakynthos and Mykonos. Our flight was delayed by an hour. As I have arranged with our apartment host to pick up us at the airport, I was very apologetic as I felt that I have wasted 1 hour of her time. However, the apartment host was totally chill about it. She simply told us to enjoy Mykonos. Looking back, it seemed that transportation delay is a norm in Greece as all our flights and ferries within Greece were delayed!

We had a good stay at Anemos Apartment at Mykonos. I was especially touched by the hospitality and friendliness of our host. This was life at Mykonos. Very laid back. Mykonos is well known as a party island. Unfortunately, neither I nor my friends are party animals.

We took a bus to Mykonos town and were captivated by the blooming bougainvillea. Like all tourists, we took photos with the white and blue buildings. I was disappointed by the windmills and Little Venice in Mykonos was nothing like Venice. I was hoping to see the big bird, pelican, but it was nowhere to be seen.
