Catching up on blogging

I woke up and ate breakfast this morning. I’m pretty happy with the food provided by the hotel. Afterwards, we waited for an hour for a bus to take us to the next town. We realized we were at the wrong bus stop, and then we found out the bus wasn’t running yet because it wasn’t tourist season. Some of the people from my sociology class got together and ate lunch and then sat by the pool to study for a few hours. I got to know some of the girls better and finish my homework. Then I went down to the beach with a few friends to layed in the sun for a while. We stayed there about an hour and then went back to the hotel to clean ourselves up before going to dinner. After dinner I went into town to find someone to interview for my class. Our assignment was to find someone who is from Greece and ask them about the values that are common in this area. I got to meet a woman named Flora who worked at a hotel. She was really nice and I learned a lot about what she personally thought about the economic situation. I spent the rest of the night with some friends in town and tomorrow we go on a cruise to visit a couple of the islands.
