The sand is like brown sugar..

Mike and I are on Ios Island right now. We have been here for one week and have one more week to go. It is beautiful here and we are staying at a beach resort. Unfortunately, there is no where on the island that I can upload my pictures.

We are living in a canvas shed type thing. The accomodations are surprisingly cheap, but the food and whatnot is quite expensive. It cost $12 CDN to do half a load of laundry yesterday!! Ouch!

We were planning on getting jobs here but we found out that you have to commit to 45 days and then they give you your full paycheck. (you only get paid partial up until that point). Plus the work days are 12 hour shifts 7 days a week and it only works out to $28CDN/day!!!!

So in the end, Mike and I are coming home 3 weeks early. We're not too sad about it because we have done everything we came to do. We both feel like we have been gone for months. We will now be home around June 20th.

We will be sure to upload the rest of our pictures once we are home. Next week we will leave Ios Island and head back to Athens for a couple of days then back to Italy to catch our flight to London. We will stay in London for 2 nights before heading home on June 19th.

Anywhoe, time to head out, see you all in a couple of weeks.
