Ahh.. Beautiful Mykonos!

So, vacation started with us flying from Newark to Munich. We got there in the morning and we had the whole day to explore as we were staying the night before we headed out to Greece. Unfortunately the weather Gods were not cooperating and it was chilly, in the 60’s and raining the whole day. We walked around a bit and had a yummy meal at a beer garden.. but it didn’t last very long. We were quite happy to go back to our cosy room and get under the covers. The next morning was an early start- 6 AM. We got ready and flew to Athens… there we had a few hours of layover and then a flight to Mykonos– finally.

We reached the island and immediately started to relax. What a beautiful island!!! It is absolutely gorgeous with the blue Mediterranean sea against the white structures everywhere. We walked around and sat down at a bar overlooking the ocean and enjoyed some rose and beer. The vibe was relaxed and people were ready to party!! Everyone was waiting for the sunset, music was blasting and boy was it a great way to start the vacation!

We walked around some more and went to a restaurant called Eva’s Garden. It was rated very highly and we decided to try it. We started with fried calamari .. it was fresh and absolutely delicious… We then ordered the grilled Sea Bream.. it was perfectly grilled and super flavorful. It came with mixed vegetables and a mix of olive oil and lemon juice. We poured that sauce all over the fish and it was one of the best fishes I have had!!!
We ended the meal with a delicious sweet liquor that comes from a special tree from a special island- I can’t remember what it was called but it was delicious!! Can’t wait to explore some more.. and then head over to Santorini!!!
