the Ozzies

Ios is full of australians! they are literally everywhere. but none were so lovely as my 3 ladies who i befriended on the ferry on the way over. well i met alli and tors at the port and we travelled on the boat together adn Em was with them when they came over to Ios for the past 4 days. it has been a lot of fun. they felt like my friends and not people i had just moved in with. we spent the last few days sun bathing on the different beaches across the island cos we hired a car and went exploring, saw Homer's tomb and paid our respects, and went out every night to try to drink every option available!Alli is from Sydney, Victoria is from Melbourne and Em is from Canberra, Alli and Em went to college together and Tors met Alli in Maastricht on exchange. its funny how things work out. the girls are all off the island this evening and im going to miss them. facebook is a wonderful invention so when i head over to Oz they will be waiting for me.. or so they said! but what i will take away from this experience with them is Em tryin to do the 7 shots in 7 secs and only managing to do it in 8 sec and then me trying to beat her and ending up pouring them all over myself.. oops. the 4 of us heading kayaking and snorkling for hours yesteday and most of all when i asked a group of people at the port is anyone spoke english ally looked up and saying "yeah sure"... the start of a long friendship.cheers ladies, i'll see you next year
