singinalot #127 Posted October 19, 2019 I admire you for your dedication to the gym. We did a TA in April and I was sure I'd use the gym every sea day (we had 6 in a row). I went a grand total of one time, lol! I did stick to a mostly low carb diet on the ship (with a few desserts here and there, but no bread, pasta, or potatoes), but only saw the gym once!thank you! stay tuned because we only made it until about day 4 with our gym dedication Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

singinalot #132 Posted October 19, 2019 dinner that night was nothing to write home about...actually nothing was really exciting that we had had on the ship so far.I pretty much had the same thing for breakfast every day...which of course I do at home so I don’t know why it bugs me on vacay Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singinalot #133 Posted October 19, 2019 Since we weren’t really excited about dinner we went up to WJ for second dinnerSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singinalot #134 Posted October 19, 2019 The next day found us in Mykonos, a port we had loved last year. We woke at 6 and saw the sunrise. If you’ve read some of my previous reports you’ll know we generally not up with the sunrise on vacation...or at least happy about it...but on this trip we saw more sunrises than we ever have.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singinalot #135 Posted October 19, 2019 No pictures of my breakfast...it was pretty much the same every day at that point. got off ship at 7:30 n realized the seabus didn’t start until 9...we were a little in a sleep haze irritation and decided to just start walking. google maps said it wasn’t more than 30 minutes to town. This turned out to be one amazing accident let me tell y’all! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

singinalot #137 Posted October 19, 2019 check out the empty walkway!We got to old town and it was vacant! The only signs of life were the fishermen and shop owners getting ready for the day. This was prime photo opportunity. I knew I wanted photos of little venice that we had missed last time so I told Nate to navigate and find it for me.

singinalot #138 Posted October 19, 2019 BINGO! The only signs of life we saw were 2 other people with the same idea in mind. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singinalot #139 Posted October 19, 2019 It was so quiet! So incredibly peaceful.The only sound was the water hitting against barriers of the homes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singinalot #140 Posted October 19, 2019 we continued along the empty shore towards the windmillslooking back the way we came:Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singinalot #141 Posted October 19, 2019 The man in the shop under the windmills was so kind! I told him I remembered his little shop from our visit last year and had to come back for another magnet...after I checked out he gave me a keychain and thanked me for returning.This beautiful Windstar yacht was tenderinghttps://www.windstarcruises.com/ships/wind-star/overview/There were still very few people out! We were able to get people free shots at the windmills!Nate bought some olive oil wood gifts from this shopSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

singinalot #145 Posted October 19, 2019 Nate exchanged some USD for euros at this place along the waterfront.Speaking of the waterfront...looks like the town is coming alive...It was Sunday so all the churches were in service.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singinalot #146 Posted October 19, 2019 definitely went in...definitely bought eyeliner...We were getting hungry so headed towards the row of restaurants facing the waterThis place was delicious! Best meal we’d had so far.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singinalot #147 Posted October 19, 2019 We ate our leisurely meal and started walking again...wanting to find something particular. Who remembers this shot from last year? I semi remembered the stores around where we had taken that picture (landmarks are my thing right?!) and once I spotted one of them I knew we were close. WINNER! And just when we thought the day couldn’t get any better.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

singinalot #150 Posted October 19, 2019 We got back on ship, ate a snack, hit the gym n then we’re going to go to the pool but Nate suggested we go down to the little beach directly in front of the ship. It was 4pm and BOB was 6:30. Off we went and it was incredible!
