Hello all! So I made it before a whole week went past! Mostly because we're just about done and I am about to start traveling in earnest. I can't believe it's been six weeks already! But I am definitely looking forward to Liss and Jenn getting here! The week has gone by pretty much as usual. Work has been fun, and I got to put together my big pot! Which was slightly terrifying and all sortsa awesome ^^ I shall have to show people pictures when I get home! Other than that, we've been poking around Pacheia Ammos, being lazy and loungy!
 |
| Blinky! Who loves being pet, and will stand cuddles! (Yes... it's a cat. Yes I picked him up anyways!) |
 |
| I still walk up the hill at sunrise, which is usually a pretty sight ^^ |
 |
| Ella, chilling in our room. She's been adopted and is going home to America at the end of the trip. |
Last night we had a conservation dinner, and the head conservator who has been supervising us, Kathy, took us all to Mochlos to have drinks and dinner. It was quite fun and very tasty!
 |
| We stopped at this little bar for a beer. It was very cute and right on the beach with this fabulous view! |
 |
| And to the other side you could see Mochlos, an island that used to be an isthmus that has a Bronze age (and later) settlement on it. |
 |
| Me! With my beer! Look how dark it is! Almost... well, all... the beer in Greece is very light for the most part, so it was nice to run into a place with a more expansive beer list! |
 |
| The moon rose over the mountains as we were having dinner, and it was beautiful and orange, and I wish my camera could have caught it better! |
So tomorrow will be our last day of work, which is sad cause I shall miss it, but fun because it means on to new things! Originally I was thinking the dig would end on Monday, but it kind of ends tomorrow as far as most people are concerned, so my roommate Brett and I are going to go skip around Crete a bit before we leave the island on Tuesday. I promise we'll be safe, mothy! We're just going to go poke around a bunch of ruins like the adventurous archaeology sorts we are. Hope all is well back home, loves to all!
 |
| It was nice and clear today, and you could see the mountains quite well! |
 |
| Oh! And I almost forgot. This is Pretty Kitty, enjoying a box lid. Even in Greece cats are ecstatic over empty box pieces. (>> She's not dead, just napping!) |
