Window Shopping

The wind has dropped considerably today, so we decide to settle back into our holiday ways and do very little - I start a new book, Jeffrey Deaver's Garden of Beasts, and although its not a Lincoln Rhyme novel, its engrossing enough to get me atleast half way through.

Phil is in the mood for Pizza tonight, so we head off to Molyvos and try out a restaurant that seems to do mostly european cuisine, and also some very nice Pizzas toboot.

After eating we then head up to the shops and have a look around, first of all at the Jewelers, where I try on a number of necklaces and pendants, but ultimately decide that the first eyecatcher I saw at the beginning of the holiday is probably the item I'll buy - that being the tourmaline and white gold bracelet. So we agree on a price (never the one on the tag) and tell the owner we'll come back tomorrow to pick it up.

We then go into one of the local art shops, who sell pieces produced on the island and we get some rather cool pottery / picture type things - 2 for Phil and I to hang up, and one for Phils parents as a present from Lesbos.

Its time to head home shortly after however, where we spend a little time staring up at the stars - quite spectacular from here, you can even see the milky way - along with sporadic shooting stars, and of course some of the closer planets. What is weird however is that I've not seen the moon at night all the time that I've been here... oh well I shall keep looking.
