Yesterday, we took an excursion to the other side of Ithaca. Our retreat chartered some small boats to take us to different remote beaches. We hung out, we swam, we chatted.

Today, we got up at 430am to go to a monastery at the highest point on the island to watch the sun rise. I know that sunrise and sunset pictures are generally boring. However, the live show was lovely -- very meditative. We watched the changing colors, and listened to the bugs and birds wake up for the day. We walked around the monastery -- founded during the 1500's but I do not think any of those buildings survive today. No monks were there either.
