Zakynthos Daytrip

When my friend Holly told me she was moving to a Greek island to work there for the summer she made me promise I'd visit. Well true to my word I booked my air tickets and 3 months later I was there. Due to the island being quite hard to get to when flying, it worked out that I could only spend one day there. I arrived at 10pm at night (after setting off from Dubai at 6am that morning!) and had a few drinks in the bar where Holly works before it was time to sleep. The next morning we were up bright and early and into town where we had breakfast. Then we went for a tour of the island on the tourist train. It took us to a museum (which was actually quite interesting) and a winery (which was very interesting!). :-) When we arrived back we had lunch and a quick swim in the sea. I had a 3 hour nap after this and then we went out for a meal and some drinks. The next day I was up very early early again to fly back home via Vienna.

Holly was quite impressed with her wrap at lunchtime.
