Delos
Delos is known as the birthplace of Apollo and his sister Artemis, but it has been an important spiritual center since the third millennium B.C. It is an uninhabited (except for some working French archaeologists) island overflowing with the ruins of Greek, Roman and Egyptian temples to the gods. You can only arrange a day visit, as there are no hotels on the island. We took a boat out of Paros, spending time on Delos and on Mykonos. As you exit the boat, you’ll find a cadre of official tour guides speaking the major languages willing to assist you for a slight charge. Since Patrick, my husband, is a photographer, we chose to wander the island by ourselves. Following are some of his pictures. I’ll let them speak for themselves.

Mykonos
Mykonos is known as the party island of the Cyclades and attracts celebrities and young people from around the world. We only spent a few hours here.

Petros the pelican is the mascot of Mykonos. He’ll pose for pictures as he walks around the town. There is always a second Petros being groomed to take over when the other becomes too old.

WOW!
A truly awesome travel blog. The photos alone make it great. The tips and tricks will keep you coming back.
I hope you look for those extras that folks really need to make the trip work. There are some awesome opportunities to guide to those with less experience.
By the way, Greek Islands are fantastic and they provide an opportunity for travel and exploration on the cheap.
