Relaxing in Porto Rafti!

Yesterday was a slow day here in Porto Rafti. After a good run in the morning we had classes and were finished by lunch. In the afternoon a small group of us went down to the sea and settled into a coffee shop called The Bistro. We had some true Greek coffee there. I got the famous "frappe". I wasn't sure what to expect but we know for certain all our drinks were very strong. They make their coffee with the grinds in it so there is a constant sludge on the bottom of your cup - yeah you're not supposed to drink that. Also while we were there we heard quite a disturbing scene on the roof. A cat was attacked and we are pretty sure it died by the sounds of it. I am NOT making this up! Our waiter did not speak a lick of english so that was an interesting situation! Bonnie and I were left to work out the bill on our own - it doesn't help that greeks in general are not too facially expressive so with every english word we said or acted out the waiter seemed possibly offended, or just uninterested. Quite a learning experience, though! On our walk back to the Artemis we witnessed a beautiful sunset - the colors here are amazing. At night I convinced a group of people to do yoga with me! We have a great gym room here so we had a lot of fun with neby-yogees! At night I have a ritual struggle with the internet. The past few nights I haven't been able to get internet in my room - can be quite frustrating but welcome to Greece! Not the same amenities as home. Today we are going to the National Archeological Museum in Athens so no classes! Off to the big city!
