Paros

Having a great time in Paros. We purposefully chose a 'quiet' island to visit. After the hustle and bustle of Rome this is paradise. We are staying in Pension Sofia which is 5mins walk to town, beach, port etc but set in gorgeous gardens with olive trees, gazebos and hammocks......if the beach is not your thing you can chill out in the garden with a good book. Its a great spot, so much so we are staying an extra night before Naxos. Paros has a small town, lots of wee coves and beaches and its super relaxing. Today we hired 50cc scooters and explored the island. It was fantastic fun, though we must have looked a bit daggy on the scooters. We found a perfect cove, aqua blue crystal clear water, a pictur postcard church on on end of the bay and a wee marina at the other end. Noone there but us, jumped off the scooters, into togs and jumped in.......glorious!
