Greece lightning

A few notes on Greece: 
Grecians are natural models 
Stray dogs and cats are everywhere, particularly in Athens - the government does take care of them, though; most have collars with phone numbers you can call if it's looking particularly shabby. It's perfectly fine to pet them - obviously you should lick your hands afterward.
The food is cheap but always delicious - gyros, mousaka, souvlaki, yogurt, feta, kebabs, spanikopita,tzatziki sauce, omnomnomnom...
Even on a rainy day, never pass up the opportunity to dip into the Mediterranean. Nature provides plenty of coat hooks for your belongings.
Mykonos is absolutely beautiful, even in the off-season
Suisse Café in Mykonos is the most charming place. Georges and Giselle hand-make all of their cakes and desserts. The Greek Yoghurt with Honey and Nuts must be had 2 days in a row - the first to taste, the second to appreciate. Georges will also call 10 different places to try and secure a rental car for you. An added bonus? His amazing glasses.
  

Back in London, ready to continue exploring the crap outta this place.
