The Greek Diaries, Thursday, 26th of July 2012

Today I ventured down to Spilia beach again to continue my tanning expedition and delve deeper into my book. Unfortunately for me, I once again fell asleep and ended up even more sunburnt than before! Mental note; set some kind of incremental alarm or find a more interesting book! 

Tonight I was invited to dinner at Zavitsanos taverna with my new Australian friends! A very good friend of mine owns this taverna, Olia (well her family owns it) and she is in fact the very first person I met on this island, we played together when we were little. We have been friends ever since. Zavitsanos taverna is across the way from Laki’s taverna, which on Mondays and Thursdays hosts Tourist night where they provide traditional Greek entertainment of dancing for tourists visiting the island. 

After dinner the girls and I headed back to our usual hangout, the café over the Stefani for banana daiquiris and more gossip! After the girls went home I went with my old friend to Precious bar in Katomeri, the next town. We again engaged in deep conversation, a trait that I am enjoying about our friendship and mulled over Mojitos and Margaritas. The more I talk to him the more interesting he becomes to me. This is a problem because he is not someone I should be developing interest or feelings in.
