First, we went on a ferry to the island of Skiathos, where we stayed at an inn owned by our friend Aris' friends, called Villa Kim. In Skiathos, we went up to a monastery that used to house 70 monks, but now has only two. When we arrived at the monastery, we got a big surprise ... there was a peacock trying to attract a female next to him, which meant he had all of his feathers up. Even though he looked incredible, the female didn't seem impressed.
From there, we went on a hike and reached another monastery, where we were invited to have lunch with the people who were there restoring it. We ate some delicious cheese pie that had just been baked in an outdoor wood-burning stove. It was really nice to meet such friendly locals.
