The journey to Ios

SO currently im here in Ios on the beach marvelling at the heat of it all.. it took a while to get here but it was so worth it!So i flew ryanair from dublin to london and then at 6am flew out of london into athens at 12pm but the journey didntn stop there... i met Andy in athens and he took em to the beach, with a lot of bitching from me cos of my bag and the heat was intense.. i had left my bag in with a random travel agency man but my nerves got the better of me and i recused it and lugged it out the hour journey on the tram to the beach. andy got a little lost and i got annoyed but we finally made it for about an hour of swimming and sun. so i forgave him a little when he took me for a really tastie souvlaki dn then popped me on the train to the port town of Pireas. I arrived in pireas at 8 in the evening totally freaked out that the ticket sellers would be closed, but it was fine and i got a reagular cheap ticket of 27 yo yos to take the ferry of death to the island of ios at 10pm that would come in at 8am (and it did, very much on time) whilst walking over to the loading bay i came acrosse these two austrailian girls, victoria and allie, we got to chatting adn then i ended up travellin with them most of the ferry ride over, until it got too cold on deck of the ship, i stayed up there the entire night in my sleeping back (a last minute purchase at the port) they were going on to another island but will be in Ios in 3 days so we are going to meet up again... love travellling!! so i stumbled out on to the port in ios and found my man with the sign saying purple pig hostel \, met a lovely couple and finally made it to the hostel some crazy amount of hours later than when i left dublin. i booked a bed in a mixed dorm but currently i have it to myself which is not that great but at least i got to sleep this morning for a while but fingers crossed i have visitors soon, that or im moving to francescos in town, but apparently he will kiock me out should i get a job.. hmmmm. met this local (well i think he is originally british but he has been here 36 yers) terry. and he gave me some tips on getting a job etc... im hopeful, plus am looking into doing my diving cert?! am feeling really white adn a little flabby but who cares im here!!! feel free to email me to stay in touch adn photos will be up soon
