Greece

hello everybody! santorini is absolutely unrealzies.... ok lets start with the 15 minute windy road up to the small villages.. ya the towns are on top of huge mountains!! santorini was actually created when a volcano went off and broke up the island.. more on the volcano in a bit.... we hit up the black beaches our first day here, our hotel is located 30 metres away from the beach, the black sand is incredibly hot, they have boards for people to walk on because its soo hot, and we laid and baked all day.... teh day after we felt kind of adventurous so we went to a travel agency and booked a full day excursion around santorini which visited the volcano, the hot springs, thirissia island and lastly stopped at oia for the best sunsets in the world.. it was amazing, i stole a rock from the volcano which took us 30 minutes to climb up molten lava, the volcano is still active by the way, its hotter then hell on this thing, next we went to the hot springs (the last thing i needed after a 30 minute hike up hill|)... followed by a small place on some island where we enjoyed cold fries because apparently the power was out... next we went to this town called oia for a sunset.. teh climb up was 220 huge steps so we decided to take the donkey taxi!!!! wow what an experience... imagine a line of 5 donkeys going up these steps... and were not tied up together or anything!!! it was nuts.. the one dude who worked there would yell at them and do the motorboat with his lips to get them moving... laura laughed the whole way up.. while my donkey felt like it was gonna collapse because of my 220 pound physique.. he hated me and i hated him.. it was a long 5 minute ride! but anywya my internet time is up... its very costly on the islands...... ok ill talk to you soon...

well we are in our third island here in greece... and wow.... heres the scoop of probly the most intense day ever.... first we were waiting in line forever for our first ferry out of naxos to ios and stupid me i was playing with my clothes and had my ferry ticket in my mouth and it BLEW away... almost into the water but luckily laura is ahtletic and she was able to chase it down and get a foot on it before our entire day was ruined........... but wait... we get into ios and i we really didnt have too much planned so i asked the dude tthat works ehre which way to the beach, jus so we could check it out... he tells me some route in broken english and what i heard was take the donkey path on the right... what he really said was take the road beside the donkey path and follow it for 10 minutes... so i take laura down this donkey path and it was kinda cool, along the side of a mountain... and then we saw some donkeys, pretty cool... but then two rottweillers came running at us about 150 km/h... laura and i boot it, these dogs were foaming at the mouth and ready to mawl anything in sight, laura and i are running faster then ben johnson in his peak and all of a sudden i look back and laura has blown a tire, shes exhasperated... the dog was withing 5 feet from her, and laura grabs her purse to swing at this thing... it was giant hungry dog against laura, finally laura scared the shit out of the dogs with her foul mouth and punishing evil glare... we were safe... laura was kind of scared for the rest of the evening.. we bought some uzo shot it in our room, went ot the hostel bar where we did some shooters then out and about in this small town on ios... the bar scene is ridiculous, there is one every block and all they want is people to come in... free cover for luara of course, but due to me beinga male it costs me 5 euros per bar... so we didnt frequent too many... we had a good time with some aussie girls and danced it up for a few hours... all in all a crazy day where luck was definitly on our side... we leave to santorini tommroow and it looks amazing there... cliff jumping for sure... ill update soon... time is flying only 2 and half weeks left... i look forward to bein back in reggie... talk to you all soon!!! xoxoxoxo

hello everyone.... well we are in the midst of our greek island tour.... the beach officially kicked our ass today and we had to bail out early at about 2 pm... i have this dirty heat rash growing on my chest, and it is super itchy.... so we thought wed hit up and internet cafe, then pop over for a pina colada..... i heard it is raining quite a bit in regina... which is a good thing for the stuccoers... tony you gotta let me know how that mlb season is going, you must be in playoffs by now..... anyways, things in greece are great, i love gyros pitas and backlava... and any weight that i ahve lost has been regained... i imagined myself coming home nice and lean, but greece has ruined that parade... i find myself eating a big meal, like last night we made a huge pot of spaghetti that we made in our kitchen which is in our room! then we walked the streets... what do i stumble upon, of course a street full of gyros stores.... danger, danger, danger!!! i dont know if was the wine and beer talking but i had to order one..... bah... well ill keep this blog entry short, and ill update at every island.... take care everyone

well its our fourth day here in greece... and today, the mighty greece sun beat our asses.... i look like a ripe tomato, whenever i look in the mirror i cant help but burst into laughter... it all started when the last time at the supermarket we decided to buy tanning oil instead of sunscreen... ooops... well we all know what happens to a pizza pop when you microwave it for 5 minutes instead of 2 right.... well do you know what happens to jeremy and laura when we sit in the sun for 5 hours wearing tanning oil in plus 35 degree heat... trouble... but im hoping for a miracle and for it to turn into a tan by tommorow or im goin to be one of those guys under the umbrella reading books and not enjoying the sun....... im sure well be fine.... in other news .. greece is absolute paradise... the islands are spectacular... beaches, caves, mountains, sand.... it has everything... i suggest to everyone taht one place you ahve to visist is greece... we still have 3 islands to go, and we splurged a bit and we are staying in some party resorts.. why not.... they all come equipped with pools, a/c, tv, refrigerator.... i know a tad ritzy.... we leave tommorow for a 15 minuter hyper speed boat to naxos then so forth... we totally abused our a/c proivelege in athens, we had that thing working overtime, we had our room at a cool 16 degrees celcius most of the time... i actually had to wrap myself up good in the blankets to get some shut eye.... other than that, our days here on paros the island have included frisbee, swimming competitons, and many gyros... a gyros for those who are not into the greek culture, is a pita with tzaztiki, pork, onions, and fries.... for 1.60 its money in the bank... and its also making us feel very fat... i think were goin out for supper tonight, prolly lamb for myself, or the highly recommended seafood.... for laura, probly a salad... and a disgusted look when i eat my seafood.... all in all everything is flying by... hope everything in regina is going smoothly... take care comb your hair...
