Today Bob and I got up early and boarded a bus to another town called Filoti. From there we did a 5km hike up Mt Zeus, which is the highest point in the Cyclades Islands of Greece. It was a steep and rocky climb, but it had a great view. On the way down we stopped by the Cave of Zeus which is a possible location for the birthplace of Zeus. After lunch in Filoti we popped on over to Aperianthos, which claims to be a town untouched by tourism. I thought it looked a lot like Hydra in the sense that the streets were only pedestrian besides the one passing by the town.

The start of our hike. On the left hand side in the middle of the pic there is a white horse. I though that was a good omen for a climb up a mountain. |

Lots of sheep and goats on the mountain. |

Me at the entrance to the cave of Zeus taken by Bob, who is inside. I thought it was scary and didn't want to go in. |

This was all the farther I went in. |

Bob deeper inside the cave. |
I keep trying to take these beautiful videos and then Bob talks during them. Today, he had me laughing so hard I was crying.
The following are pictures taken at Aperianthos.
