...try "writes" again :)

hey guys,

sorry i haven't posted in a while.. we've been settling in to the swing of things and also doing some more stuff after work. my fave thing we've done so far, and i think tony will agree, is see the sunset in oia. oia (pronounced EE ah) is on the other tip of the island, from which you can see the volcano, other small islands, fira (major city) and also, a great view of the sunset. it is also a very cute town, with a bunch of homes built into the mountains. i mean, literally built into the rock. i'm going to try downloading some pics from my camera to post as well. we took our second trip out there last night, and it was awesome. we went to a very cute cafe afterwards, with a great view and great food (which is very rare here). i got a yogurt with honey and fruit and it was HUGE (and soooo yummy). tony and i eat about three yogurts per day each here - greek yogurt is the best! tony got this really good chicken wrap. most of the food here sucks - its pretty much all the same thing - tourist "greek" food, which apparently half the time isn't authentic greek food (i.e. mousaka). luckily the restaurant i work in is reallly good- i've heard several people say its the best food they've ever had (i actually had the best french fries i ever had) - so it's nice to get my free meal there every day :). anyway, we're also really looking forward to our weekend that's coming up for tony's bday. our resort is supposed to be very nice and we're looking forward to some time off of work and staying in a pimped out hotel!! :)

will post pics in a minute...
