Going back in time a bit to our first night...
Here we are in Santorini, this amazing little Greek island, and Leslie and I go out tonight looking for the wild night life that we've heard so much about.
Heading into town after dinner (we're about 15 minutes away from Thira by foot from our hotel). On our way in, we decide to stop and use the internet since we had seen a sign earlier today that said ¨Internet 24-7.¨
Cool, we're in.
While walking, we were talking about how we weren't so sure about this crazy night life.
We had been into town today, and we hadn't seen any bars or clubs or anything like that - just really touristy restaurants and shops. Which is great, we definitely enjoyed playing the tourist part, but we were also craving some good Greek music.
So anyways, we arrive at the internet cafe around midnight, walk in, and we stop dead in our tracks.
Picture about 4 long rows of computers crammed into the shop, each station accompanied by a comfy, black-leather chair. Now picture the same room packed with people-specifically people of the male gender-all playing video games. No, we didn´t see their computer screens. Rather, it was the shouting, quick finger movement and intense concentration permeating the air that initally gave it away.
I looked at Leslie and said, "This must be the night life we've been hearing about!"
Made my day.
