Delos, Greece

After Naxos, we took a ferry to the "too-high-class-for-our-tastes" island of Mykonos. We ended up camping the first night. The next day, we took a day trip to Delos.

Delos used to be a center of trade for ancient Greece. It's dry, hot, and has almost no natural resources - but it's key position in the center of the Cyclades islands allowed a society to build. No one has lived on Delos in the past thousand years, however the island is covered in sprawling ruins.

There are so many ruins, that visitors can walk around what used to be an ancient town. Renee and I spent a few hours wandering around, walking through ancient mansions, and admiring the monuments they have left - such as the gateways, and amphitheater.
