DAY 5: MYKONOS
CLICK FOR VOICE: Mikonos, Greece, population 9300, is today's port of call ... an eastern-most Greek island, known for it's spectacular beaches, white and blue-trim Grecian villages, and great sea-food. At the top of the Hora town harbor hill are windmills, dating back centuries to claim power from the island environment. Tourism and night-life support the island and hotels for the rich, famous and party crowd. The narrow and clean streets are thronged with chic fashion salons, cool galleries and jewellers, loud music bars, and torrents of crimson flowers. We escaped with one jewelry purchase ... and a cup of Greek coffee that brings new meaning to the word 'strong.'
