Currently in Athens, arrived here at 4 in the morning off the overnight ferry from Ios. And at the moment I am knackered! Three nights in Ios will do that to anyone. I stayed at a hostel called Far Out Camping, which is basically a huge party resort. The rooms pretty much look like a dog kennel, on a larger scale of course. It was tons of fun, especially for Canada Day! I met all these great Canadian people and the hostel set up a party for the day. Well really all they did was put red and white balloons up and then decided to boost up all the prices of drinks..bastards!
Regardless a beach/pool party is always fun, and I must say Canadians know how to make it a good time. We even had a huge performance of drunk, loud, crazy Canadians signing Oh Canada a few times, which explains why I have no voice left. It was so funny to see all the proud Canadians in Greece showing their pride. The daytime party was much more fun then it was heading out at night. My night out consisted of nearly getting hit by a car (not my fault he started backing up the car without looking), cutting my foot on some glass, getting a drunk bartender who couldn't count to 6 and therefore hassled me out of an extra 3 euro, and the topper of the night was getting puked on in a bar. Thankfully just my leg and not much else!
All in all I must say even with all that happened that it was the best Canada Day I have ever. Truly an epic time. I just feel bad for all the other nationalities who had to put up with us for 24 hours. No I lied, I feel bad for everyone else who has to go through 4th of July tomorrow with any Americans on the island...you can't get any worse then that!
