Loosing my head... or mind.

Taking the tram down the coast of Greece was an experience all in itself. Before we proceeded to enter the tram we were given a warning about the large opportunity for pick picketers to steal your money. Our group took our seats for the hour ride ahead of us and at first i wondered why gave us this warning... but as the tram filled with people piled upon people i lost my mind to the millions of opportunities someone could have to pickpocket anyone of their choosing. Luckily, everyone got away with their money in hand.

As the tram ride continued, we began to see the aegean sea behind us. Finally, we stepped off at the last stop and walked our way to the beach. Let me tell you this, it was beautiful. I basically lost my head and threw off my shoes and ran into the sea. I have never been so excited. :) The sun began to set and we decided to walk up to a overhang that had the perfect view of the sunset and the Aegean. I began to walk towards the overhang, i was taken away by the beauty of nature. Not only was the sunset beautiful, but the people i was with maybe all that much better. We are becoming an even closer family, which was made obvious as we all began to loose our heads and common sense while we told stories of our pasts without hesitation.





















If i had to say anything about today is that loosing my head to the view of the sea was well worth the time. It is nice to be able to loose all thought process and just take in all the beauty around you. Today is a day that i will never forget.

S'agapo,
Alex
