Aegina Island

my last day in Greece (September 10th) was spent on Αίγινα Island (in English, it's Aegina...pronounced ah/GEE/na -the G sounds like the G in Goat).
it was beautiful. 
i had my doubts before i went, but it was WELL worth the 19€ (19 euro is about 23 US dollars) round-trip ticket from Athens. :)
if you're ever in Greece, GO TO AN ISLAND. seriously. 
it doesn't even have to be Santorini (you know, the white houses with blue roofs on the hill...what everyone thinks of when they think of Greece), just go to an island! it's such a different atmosphere than the cities (Thessaloniki, Athens).
(aaaaand all the Greeks will tell you to go too, so make sure you do it!)

it took a little over an hour to get to the island (by boat).
it was a lovely ride...i slept most of the hour. :)
