It's time to get up and go. Another tour of rock piles. Our ship docked out to sea. We took a boat to Mykonos and caught another boat to the island of Delos. Barbara and Polynesian Paddy joined us for this tour. This is Mykonos where we caught the next boat. Our first view of Delos and once off the boat we began the long hot tour. Dan carried water in our Big Kahuna bag. One ruin had many pottery shards that I could relate too. Even today decorators put these indented shelves in rooms. My mom did this in the 50's. I finally got to see a mosaic floor like those I missed in Pompeii. Their rooms had high ceilings. An aqueduct. Posing and more posing. A long wide street though the town and it didn't have any speed bumps. Part of the city once looked like this. It was spread out with lots of places to go. On our ticket were these famous lions. When we came across them we were told these are copies as were most statues on our trip so far. However the museum was on this island so we saw the originals. They have found some artifacts but most things had been looted from the island. It's fun to imagine that this man was once living on the island and wasn't from an artists imagination. Quite a lot of work to save these upright. Another beautiful mosaic. Back outside we were shown where the shapes of feet were chiseled into stone. No one knows why. It was flattering to have it mentioned that I was at the museum. Then we did the boat trip to return to Mykonos. We were too tired to walk among the gift shops so we returned to the ship via another boat. We had a nice buffet dinner and relaxed. We love the sunsets here. Later we went to the glass show and then to bed. Thank you for the visit. Wendy
