The End.
I was able to eat bacon sandwiches without taking a personal loan. I had pork for breakfast, lunch and dinner and still had enough money to buy an 'I love Crete' t-shirt. I was amazed to see people drinking beer in the street and felt it was only fair to join in with the greatness, when in Rome and all that. Within the first hour I had drunk enough Frappe to ensure hallucinations and the Greek men made me wish I wasn't gay - Sometimes life is tough. Every meal ended with a jug of complimentary Raki and of course it would be rude to offend the locals and leave it behind. We ate a LOT of meals in Crete.
Holidays make you fat. Fact.PS Be warned, when I was away I discovered a love of crime novels. If I start writing posts about serial killers you know why.
Great that you had a fab time, I too know the pain of being baconless
ReplyDeleteJust so long as it isn't in the form of true crime, eh? You poor thing, being force fed all that bacon and booze (the things we have to do, to fit in, eh?)!!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, you've been missed.
Welcome back! I'll wait for the posts about serial killers...:)
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny.
ReplyDeleteMost of the population of the world I would rather NOT see naked.
ReplyDeleteED, I asked you nicely not to post my picture, maaaan. lol. thanks for your kind words today. hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree that when in Rome and all that...It is how I discovered my love for house wine in Italy. Hating house wine only makes you a snob and no one likes a snob.
ReplyDeleteI'm leaving on vacation tomorrow and I plna to eat, drink, and be merry...and if I look like that picture when I get back and am going to be po'd!
ReplyDeleteHum, they all seem a little stiff and what's with the crazy hair. And they look a wee bit wee. You sure you were in Greece?
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're home and that you really lived it up on your vacation. That's as it should be!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a rough go of it.. ;)
ReplyDeleteEating, drinking and killing are all closer than you think!
ReplyDeleteAny chance you could immigrate to Crete???? I would!!! -- in a heartbeat!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like lots of fun :)
ReplyDeleteI cant wait to read that :)
i leave for my vacation in 10 days - i plan to be a naked porker too!
ReplyDeleteThe 11th Victim by Nancy Grace, pretty good crime novel. The Undone by Marin Slaughter not bad either. Ive read them both in the past week.
ReplyDeleteand Ummmm... pork.
Oh do all the girls look like Barbie?
ReplyDeleteWas Ken naked too?
Now that's the second new drink I've learned about here. Iced coffee - any better than Starbucks? They do have middle eastern Starbucks - right?
I don't care about crime or killers. Tell us about some embarrassing moments on your trip.
Not sure no one besides my hubby would want to see me naked. Glad you had a wonderful trip but more glad that you are back to the world of blogging!
ReplyDeleteI am not going anywhere where I would need to be naked, unless it was a blind colony or someplace very dark! lol
ReplyDeleteSomehow I never would have thought of nakedness and pork being connected together in one subject, but yes, it works -- sausages.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a wonderful time...!
Oh, but fat naked people is not cool!
ReplyDeleteHolidays, broken legs, getting old, good food, beer- lots of things make me fat- and I look fine naked- fat and naked is not bad- unless the person is obesely fat and can longer take care of their body. But that's a whole nother can of nuts.
ReplyDeleteand pork=good.
I got side tracked when you mentioned bacon sandwiches. Oh how I used to love those. I gave up pork, but still crave. Yum.
ReplyDeleteEveryone was naked when I went on vacation in Spain so on my last day there I dropped my bathing suit top and joined them. It was really liberating and not as bad as I thought. Maybe next time you can enjoy your bacon sandwich au natural!
ReplyDeleteyour holiday sound fatabulous... lots of free hugs I hope :)
ReplyDeletex robyn
So glad you totally enjoyed your vacation! I'm just back from mine (Ohio, not nearly as exciting as yours) and I'm still catching up. Off to read your posts I missed.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home!

LOVE this post! Mainly b/c I heart Barbie and bacon.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a nice trip!
What, Barbie and no Ken? Tsk Tsk. I don't recall many handsome men in Corfu, but then it was full of Brits, all exceptionally red-faced and sweaty. Glad you had a good time.
ReplyDeleteHa Glad you had a good one. If holidays make you fat, I'm already a step ahead. Yum Frappe, the coffee ones?
ReplyDeleteThat tears it! I need a vacation that has lovely greek men walking around. Oh wait, that sounds like a dream I just had.
ReplyDeleteDid you get pics of the greek men? I need to live vicariously through someone!!!
