Bye-bye solid ground, time to take it to the sea. The boy bodyguards watched our stuff again while we packed up for the port of Piraeus. Welcome to the cruise, on a small scale, and we had our photo taken and waved to our friends (elbow, elbow, wrist, wrist, wrist) as we boarded the Calypso.
Our cabins were spread all over the boat - Sandra and steph were moved to the front cabin on the 2nd floor, Amy, Amanda, Ali, and Mandy were on the 3rd floor then Chelsea and Tanya were at the back of the boat. We donned our orange life vests for the emergency drill, headed back to our cabins for naps, booked it up to the Captain’s lounge for dance lessons, and poolside activities that involved kissing “Matthew McConaughey” and some booty shaking. The boat docked at Mykonos, our first island.

Life vest drill - exhausting.
Luckily we didn’t have to walk because we took a shuttle to town. FINALLY! This is what Greece is supposed to look like - White houses with blue trim. The whole town is white washed twice a year and is a maze of pristine white buildings, blue doors and skinny quaint streets. Rachel led us on a short walking tour through the streets.
Sandra and steph, lost in perfect photo shots, lost the group. While the others continued on to the famous windmills, Sandra and steph had their own tour of the back streets and ended up above the windmills and looked down to see the group at the bottom of the hill - whew.
The sunset, casting candy hues on the glowing houses and water. Under that beauty we had some time to eat crepes and shop, 2 things we do well. We outstayed our welcome and made it back to the boat for dinner. We took the time to eat in the dining hall and were rewarded with a delectable meal one course at a time and two hours of rest.
