I haven't written much lately, as I did not feel the need to share my bad attitude and mood across country borders to whomever might be reading this. I don't even like moody Corie and I figured no one else would want to read her negative thoughts, but positive, fun Corie is back after 2 wonderful days in Santorini, so I will write my blog in retrospect (from July 17- July 20).
I woke up in time to eat breakfast, take a shower, and make it to Natalia, Michelle, and Meredith's hostel by noon, when we had agreed to meet up. I took a bus to go see them where they were staying at Hotel Perissa. I asked the bus driver when I got on the bus if he knew of it and he said yes. As the beach we were headed to is called Perissa beach, I had a feeling he wasn't really listening to me and that I'd have to keep an eye out for the hotel. As we cruised along the curvy roads of Santorini smushed in a bus like sardines in a can, I began to talk to the people around me on the bus (it started with me apologizing for basically laying on their laps). I told them I was going to Hotel Perissa, not Perissa Beach, so when we passed the hotel, it was a whole group of us asking the bus driver to stop. I showed up at Hotel Perissa and met up with the girls. They are great and I had a fantastic time with them. We took the 4-wheelers they had rented and went down to the beach. We had a super cute waiter on the beach who brought the food and drinks directly to our lounge chairs. I told them about Kamari and that they should check it out. Natalia teased me. "When people ask 'How were the Greek Islands?' You can tell them 'the rocks were amazing!'" We laid on the beach all day until I had to go. I left on a bus to make it back to my hostel in time to catch my plane back to Athens and, tomorrow, on to Istanbul.
