Day 18 - Athens

We slept in a little and then headed to the port to get ferry tickets to the islands. We had tickets by 11 but the ferry didnt leave until 5:30pm, so we had some time to kill. It was a Sunday so there wasnt much going on and we werent very motivated to go very far from the port. We walked through a bizarre flea market that had EVERYTHING you can imagine. There were people yelling back and forth, wheelin and dealin. We ventured a little ways back into town to an internet cafe and killed some time, booked a hotel, and had some food, then headed back to the port and waited it out. The ferry was neat but long, a little over 5 hours. We arrived in Paros late and the hotel was a pleasant surprise. The lady who operated it was very nice and welcomed us with a beer. Town was still hopping, so we walked around and had a late meal before going to bed.
