Ravens Travels

Okay so if have you read the previous post you'll see the mix of things we saw and how we were being a bit cultured, this is where that day changed.... we were feeling proud of ourselves and decided what better way to celebrate an amazing culture but by downing a few pints, we decided to go to a backpackers pub for the first evening just to see where everyone else was from. We looked up out trusty lonely planet guide and chose a bar called ''Cheers', we had a few pints in the afternoon but as the only customers we left after 4 pints each (approx 5tlr per pint - come on it was in a tourist area so it was over priced)...we decided to head back to our hotel (The Sultins Inn) to get dressed up and head to dinner.Before we left we went to the rooftop terrace to watch the sunset with a raki:

We chose a restuarant called Despinas. The food was amazing, the people were some of the friendliest i've ever met and we were the only foreigners / english speakers there so we just relaxed and soaked up the atmosphere. They had a group of musicians (about 5-6) who moved from table to table serenading each group, this was one of funniest experiences, any time you would concentrate on a particular instrument or singer they would break into a solo performance, to me they sounded very talented..... we were in such a great mood we decided to head back to the pub (big mistake !!) .... when we get there we are the only people again, well maybe we're two early (10.30), we had a few pints and then two more people showed up, to cut a long story short one of them was nice and one kept trying to hit on me, even though I was sitting there with my very tall boyfriend, they had words but I didn't understand it all (they spoke in Dutch ) but I know it was bad, we decided to leave but the barman tried to charge us double for all the drinks claiming we'd had more ( he didn't get away with it though as i was able to point out that he hadn't cleared any glasses away and we could easily count them on the table ! ) .... we left the pub around 3am and headed back to the hotel, unfortunately we spent the next day in bed with major hangovers, damn that local really nice beer...... so we lost another day, it was silly really but amongst the bad I had a great night....
