Dream beaches: Elia Beach in Mykonos.
The title says it all. One of the most beautiful beaches in Mykonos. Golden sand, crystal blue sea and sunbeds. Almost like in paradise. The only shame is that there is a crazy wind that disturbs the atmosphere a bit.

La passeggiata di Mykonos.
Uno dei punti più famosi, e fotografati, dell’isola è sicuramente la parte della città che si affaccia sul mare. Tutti ristoranti di pesce a prezzi (vorrei dire bassi ma…) normali per una location simile.

Little Venice in Mykonos seen from the windmills.
While waiting for when I return home and can flood you with photos taken with the camera, you will have to settle for those taken with the iPhone which are not bad anyway.
I took this one yesterday evening, just before sunset, from the windmill area of Mykonos and it shows you the area called Little Venice. Beautiful, isn't it?

Castello di Paros.
Questa bizzarra costruzione si trova nel cuore di Parikia, sull’isola di Paros in Grecia.
Si tratta di un castello del 1260, costruito dai veneziani del Ducato di Naxos sulle rovine di un antico tempio di Atena (da lì la sua particolarità, che si nota bene in questo scorcio, di essere costruito assemblando pezzi di una costruzione completamente differente!). Il Castello di Parikia non è l’attrazione principale di Paros, ma merita sicuramente una visita se vi trovate in vacanza sull’isola!
La Cattedrale di Naoussa nell’isola di Paros.
Le isole Cicladi sono famose soprattutto per le spiagge e i divertimenti, ma quasi ognuna di esse in realtà presenta anche edifici religiosi di un certo interesse; uno di essi è la cattedrale di Naoussa, sull’isola di Paros. Questa chiesa ortodossa domina la cittadina dall’alto del centro storico, a poche decine di metri dalle discoteche e dagli affollatissimi bar in cui i turisti trascorrono la maggior parte delle loro serate.
