Paradise!!!

Hey everyone. Thanks for stopping by. Recently we've spent a lot of time under the sun (the weather has been unbelievable, averaging over 85 degrees!) and enjoying the last couple weeks here. We have two more weeks of class which will be intense studying followed by a week tour across Greece to Athens and then five days on the islands!! Here are pictures from our Excursion to Parga and our weekend trip to the crazy island of Corfu!Here we are in Necromanteio were people would go and talk to the dead and the oracle for advice.

These are the tiny steps to get down to the cave where the dead would be along with the oracle.

This is the cave... (Some of the girls with our Greek teacher Georgia)

Here are the girls who decided to go swimming in Parga. The city of Parga is absolutely breathtaking. The water was a little cold but it was worth it.

We swam out to that island walked around. On that island is a tiny church and an amazing view. We ended up jumping off and swimming back.

Here is the view to the left

Here we are after reaching the top of the island, the few who made it.

For some reason I can't stop laughing at this picture.

This was the view from the Island - the epitome of Greece.

We also took a trip to the Gates of Hades. This is the river where people would go before they entered the gates to Hell - our professors were really into this...

The part of the river before entering death...

And of course Alina had to jump in. I was already in my swim suit and it was hot. I couldn't help it - the peer pressure got to me!

Our amazing lunch on the river.

This is the view from the ferry when we went to Corfu on Saturday.

That is our pink hotel in the background, it was called "Pink Palace"

This is where we ate lunch one of the days

A view outside of our hotel

Just a cute little house

Jeni and I outside our room after a day of tanning and really really excited to go eat dinner

When we have to wait for our food, we get antsy....

So we take pictures..

Lots and lots of pictures!!!

All in all I had an amazing three day weekend and am ready to start studying for my tests and writing my papers. I return with a tan and an injured toe :)
