For some reason, we decided to forego a couple of more days in Athens and fly to Mykonos for two days – maybe because the ferry trip wasn’t scenic. Was relatively expense flight plus rental car there and generally wasn’t worth it. First, it was still a bit cold and out of season and second we had assumed it would be similar to the stereotypical Greek Island pictures that you see – like Santorini.

We found a place to stay in the middle of town, probably pretty cheap since we were the only people there visiting. I recall going for dinner and then hard to find an open bar afterwards. This was March – who knew so cold in Greece – and was not the European party scene we were expecting.
We left the next day, flew back to Athens and then changed from the domestic airport to the International Airport and flew some sketchy airline to Cairo….statue still in tow.
