Wish you were here

Hello! I am in Zante and it is brilliant here, missing my internet connection. Am in a fairly nice internet cafe, but me and my brother are the only occupants in the whole place. There is also dial up. You forget how awesome broadband is until you are forced to use dial up.

However it has been full of adventure. Also earthquakes. No one told us that they have near daily earthquakes, apparently the whole island was destroyed in the 50s by a huge earthquake! There has been two so far, that we've felt. They are always during the night and not too strong, but still!

Then there were the near death experiences. Also two so far. Rather hope they will stay at two...

It is unbelievably, ridiculously hot. Over 40 degrees every single day, even the nights are hot. We go to the beach really early or after 7, the rest of the day there is the pool or naps. I have never had so many naps in my life. Am reading Night Watch, have had it for ages and am finally now reading it. OMG young Vetinary, so so awesome!

It is so amazing to have nothing to do but swim, read, eat and sleep. Oh life. So good.

Watched the football yesterday...maybe one of those days England will learn that when it gets to penalties getting the ball in the net is a rather major element of winning the game. We can only hope.

With this I leave you. My postcards offer still stands. Leave me an address and you get a postcard. Probably not from here, most of the postcards here are to do with turtles or a 20 year old shipwreck, which by shipwreck standards is not that impressive.

ZANTE!!!! I went there when I was 18 with some friends and we had an awesome time. *memories*


Aw, so jealous. Where are you staying? We weren't in the capital, but futher to the North East, I can't remember the name though. Way less touristy, but still awesome late night cocktail bars. >:D

Also that shipwreck cove things rocks and the turtles are cute :P

We stayed in a villa in agios Dimitrios, also further North East, which was way less touristy but really awesome. The shipwreck is way cool, and the caves and everything, though we saw no turtles outside of the gift shops! :(

I apologise if this is a bit cheeky, but...
