Cruise Monkey?

Cruise Monkey started as a joke with my co-workers. I said I was willing to work as much overtime as was needed to help pay for our trip – the trip had become the “monkey on our back”. And in a creative moment, I cut and pasted together our cruise monkey. He’s actually Captain Stubing from the series “The Love Boat” with the happy monkey face overlaid. That seemed appropriate since we're sailing on a Princess Cruise. Stare into his eyes too long and you just might book a cruise too!

Monday, Sept. 29 - Mykonos, Greece

Our excursion in Mykonos got cancelled due to high winds and potential high seas. For the same reason, our ship couldn't dock at Mykonos, but stayed offshore and we used tenders to get ashore.

We were impressed by how pretty the water was and how pristine the houses were -- everything whitewashed. Streets were very narrow and cars, even small ones, had trouble getting around.

 



We had lunch at Kavos Fish Bar and Restaurant. It was kinda cool to have authentic Greek food -- in Greece!

We were surprised at how many cats were roaming around saying "νιαούρισμα"... (meow in Greek).


It was a lovely day.



After we got back to the ship, we relaxed, had dinner, and then saw a Beatles tribute band called "The Beatle Maniacs". They definitely played to the age of the audience... made us feel young! We ended the evening with gelato.
