Day 10 - Delphi
Who the hell wakes up at 6am when they slept at 2 am with a hangover!? What the hell were we thinking? Ugh......with our mouths tasting like an ashtray, we drag our corpses out of bed and down to the breakfast room. We managed to scoff down breakfast whilst avoiding the mouldy bread in about 15mins. My friend also managed to shove about 15 sausages into his mouth in one go. Lets just say I don't want any sausages for awhile......Again, we managed to swipe a number of sandwiches and cakes which we hid in a few vomit bags we swiped from the plane to snack on during the day.
We grab all our luggage and get our arses down to reception to checkout at 7am so we can catch the 7:30am bus to Delphi. We asked the reception woman (The blind bitch who insisted that she doesn't have anything for us from the tour company) if she can keep our luggage for us until about 8pm. She told me to just leave it in the lobby. WTF? I chucked a tantrum saying that we needed it locked up and secured and not lying in a lobby. She went and charged us like $5 to have our luggage "locked up". Which turns out to be her calling the concierge to drag the suitcase and dump it in the staircase. @!?#$@#?$ And the damn staircase was out of sight from the reception as well! It would've been more secure to sit in the lobby! GRRRRRR Not wanting to waste time, we run out to try and catch a cab to Terminal B which is where the bus to Delphi leaves at. I asked the reception guy the night before how to get to Terminal B and he told me it's a 10min cab ride to Terminal B..........thats what he thinks........
We found a taxi stand and got into the first cab where the guy said he didn't speak english, so we got off and ran to the next taxi only for the guy to say he didn't know where Terminal B was. This was when my friend ran to the cab behind us and yanked the door open only to find a chick sitting in the back seat. I think she thought we were going to rob her or something. We then ran to cab #4 where the guy spoke english. We get into the cab and told him to go to Terminal B. It seemed like the understood what we were saying. He starts driving only to call a guy and ask him where Terminal B was. This was when he told us that its atleast a 1/2hr ride to Terminal B and that we won't make the bus. We paid our $8 and got out of the cab. WE MISSED OUR BUS TO DELPHI!!! ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
We sat down at the nearest cafe to get some caffiene into us whilst we decide what to do. We pull out a book and made a group decision to go to Sounion. The history of the place is that the son goes off to fight a monster and he told his dad that if he wins, he will sail back to the island with white sails. Only the stupid moron forgot he told his dad, the king, and sailed back with black sails. Thinking his son died in battle, the guy throws himself off the cliff and kills himself. Talk about getting screwed. I bet the son did it on purpose just so he can get the throne! The scheming bastard! Yep.....definetly a place we want to go to! It sounds like a H.I storyline!! aheaheAE We catch a train to the bus station (And no its not Terminal B) only to realise that everyone really needed to pee. BAD. So we snuck into a musuem by avoiding the security for our peeing session before we all jumped onto the bus. We popped a few motion sickness tablets and passed out for the whole trip. By the the we woke up, we were at Sounion. The view there was awesome! I think I even managed to get tan! We did some filming, lots of photos and numerous suicide and homicide attempts by trying to shove someone off the cliff. Too bad I failed. :T Next time maybe.
We catch the bus back to Athens for a bit of shopping where we spent more money on Oil Paintings! How many of these things can you buy FFS!? *SigH* that another $30 down the drain.....
After last night's "Pita" incident, we felt safer going to a little corner store and getting a proper pita from there. It was good pita! So good that we decided to call Cherry and get our friend to be "Pierre" and tell her that she has a good "behind". I think she was flattered? Who the hell gets flattered by a complete stranger calling their mobile talking about their ass!? What type of sick person doesn't hang up and has a conversation with a freak!? FFS!
After a long day, we drag our asses back to the hotel only to grab all our bags and move it to the backpackers hostel. You see.....we've been staying at hotels for the entire trips. Fresh linen and towels everyday, our beds are remade, breakfast is served and we get new soap everyday. Well they don't have any of that in the hostel! And we didn't have towels! Or soap! >_< We ended up wiping ourselves dry with old dirty clothes which kinda defeated the whole purpose of the shower in the first place.....
Since our flight to Istanbul tomorrow is at 8am......that means we had to get up at 4:30am the next day.....we decided to screw the big night out and have a quiet one. Luckily it was quite an incident free day. Except us missing the bus to Delphi. Oh and us eating more Pitas for dinner....UGH. NO MORE PITA!
