Tilos, mainly, so that we could have a chat and take long walks absorbing the places you describe so beautifully. But ultimately flight connections and time decided in favour of Milos. Beautiful, low key island. Full of character and characters. Medieval villages. Lovely beaches. And great seafood. We had thought about doing a day trip to Santorini but laid back Milos didn't allow it. We also drove to Meteora - probably the most atmospheric/mystical place that I have been to - so far. <br /><br />Hopefully, sooner than later, we will land up in Tilos.<br /><br />Till then, your blog would do.<br /><br />Cheers!<br />MickyMriganka (Micky) Kalitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523636489284153587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549687624161040763.post-90836612254102307852013-10-20T14:38:11.277+03:002013-10-20T14:38:11.277+03:00Thank you...

It was awesome to even imagine the history made there. But Alexander the Great. We're talking really ancient, like 356 BCE and still standing.<br />Susan Joyce<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13458628559787201525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549687624161040763.post-33363709864171867482013-10-19T17:29:35.881+03:002013-10-19T17:29:35.881+03:00A very good idea.
