DaY FiFtY ThReE- Caving

It rained so much! The first bad weather that i have had my whole trip! So I went caving. In Napoli there was a 100 km auqa duct that ran from the mountains to the city of Napoli. During the war it was used as a hide away from the bombings. It turns out that a bunch of apartments were built over it so as you can see there is a woman who can just open here window and see into the underground.

We went through narrow openings that stretched for aboput 10 min. It was so small that I was starting to panic ( I get clostraphobic) and as you can see there is no light but the candels in which we carry.

After you are done you just step into the street haha

DaY FiFtY TwO- alone again n Napoli

But I found a sick hostle! I showed the barista how we make foam back in Cali

DaY FiFtY1- more travel

Finally I hit Italy I am taking a train to Naples and a storm hit right as I walked in !!! This is what it looks like walking up to the train platform! I met some cool people and witnessed to them one was a Muslim and the other a Jehovah's witness. I talked with the Jehovah's witness and debated with him for a couple of hours and it turned out to be a great conversation!! We ended with agreeing to dissagree but after that we continued on and spent the hours away at Mc Donalds waiting for out train. Tonight I will hit Naples and then onto Spain

DaY FiFtY Athens

Got to Athens around 11 a.m. the next day and spent a few hours at the train station. Still have another day of travel!

New friend

Met this guy on the bus ride over to the ship in crete shared the gospel with him and some info on Evolution and God as our creator. showed him facts about how evolution is not logical and how the idea of intelligent design is more sound. He said that over the last 18 years he had religion shoved at him and was not going to believe any of it but he sat quietly and listened pray for him his name is kyle.

This is me tan

this is what i look like now...

DaY FiFtY- leaving Greece

it's time to say goodbye to Greece and head off to Spain. I awoke at 8 and went for one last morning swim. the waves were large today and i enjoyed diving under,over, and into waves as big as my head. then set off to the port and will spend the next 3 days traveling

DaY FoUrTy NiNe- houses

Isn't this cool? People have taken rocks and made little housese here on the beach!! The days here are full of sleeping, swimming, and tanning.

SaY FoUrTy-EiGhT- ionisis

.


Found the second best beach in the world... as rated by a travel agency. It's called ionisis... I think. I found a crevice in the rocks in which I laid to get out of the hot sun for a couple of hours. Then set up my site and jumped into the ocean... Naked!!! haha don't worry all the hippies that live here are doing the same thing. Its a nice beach only about 20 people are here and all enjoying the quite golden sand and waves.

best dessert!

Did pooh ever dip cherries in honey??? he should have but I am content with just dipping my fingers in as well

DaY FoUrTy SeVeN- Gavdos

I went to a southern island under Crete called Gavdos. The boat trip was as usual nice. I have been lucky to not have any bad weather... hope this holds up! Got up at 7:10 and got my ticket for the trip to Gavdous. The ride was peaceful about 3 hours and barley anyone on the ship. So I took pictures of myself hehehe

Balos

It is beautiful beach here but kind of windy, still... its better than the beaches in Cali

DaY FoUrItY SiX- gramvousa

We left the port around 11 and found the island of Gramvousa; a ship had

wrecked there ages ago it was all rusted and cool looking. Walked up the steps to the ruined castle and found a dungeon!! Or maybe it was just a walkway haha

A beautiful sunset

Arrived at the beach just in time for this wonderful gift!

DaY FoUrty FiVe- stranded

today

the winds are so strong that the ferries to the island are not going; soooo. I decided to head back up to the north of Crete to catch another boat to a small beach north of the coast...I guess it's an island also. While on the way I hit another cave!!

back on the road

Well I'm headed back to paelchora for the

ferry to the small island Gavdos.

Stuff on the trail

On the trail I went down, there were places to stop and get fresh mountain water it literally poured from the rocks.

As I got to the bottom of the gorge there were all of these little monuments placed up... hundreds of them!

The national park

I took the trail down the gorge and it took about 2 hours (it sure is going to be hard getting back up. I ran into one guy who seemed to have the right idea... get a donkey!!

hahaha there was a place where we were told to run across because falling rocks were frequent!

DaY FoUrTy FoUr- waking up

I woke up here in the morning and went for a nice walk. On this walk the Lord and I had a great talk and he asked me to throw my life on the cross as I was holding something that he wanted me to give up. Such a great time as I released certain things to him and let Him start to change me! Bless the Lord today!!!

Nice drive

Man the rest of the drive was so nice!! The camera cannot express the beauty in its digital form you have to be there!!! Man I am coming back to Crete next Summer this is my favorite place

DaY FoUrTy ThReE-caving

Today I went to the National park the way was slow once I met up with these guys. but once I was on my way I found a cave... it looked like something else was here to... eating an animal...? hmmm I better get out of here.

This is my spot for the day

This is like the cover of a magazine or something.

false teaching?

It turns out that the same thing Paul told greece to stop doing is the same thing they are doing today. Paul tells them in 1st Corinthians to stop calling themselves after saints. Today they call their churches after saints and Angels; and when did Jesus have his baby?

Shaving

This will be the second time that I have shaved in 42 days!
