A Greek bachelor party
Filed under: Athens, Events, Greece, Restaurants, Travel, Video
My last night out in Athens was to a rebetiko place called Pinelopi & Mnistires, the restaurant is a fairly small one, the tables were very close to each other and it felt like its one big table and everybody is sitting next to each other like one big party family.
There was a round 60 people in the restaurant, we were 8, and next to us around 20 Athenian women throwing a bachelor party for one of them – well it started that way but after some time the whole restaurant was part of that party-.
Back to reality

Watching all these bikers in Athens riding made miss riding a lot, and wanting to go back to Kuwait to ride my bike…the way motorcyclists ride in Athens is as if they are running away from a volcano, it doesn’t matter if they are ridding a 1300cc bike or just the 50cc delivery scooter…they all ride with an attitude.
Am back in Kuwait now and can’t wait to ride the beast, but unfortunately 2 of my friends crashed a couple of days ago, believe it or not they collided into each other…nothing serious just a couple of cracked rips, a broken arm, and a scare.
The above photo is for a used Desmosedici at a Ducati dealer in Athens with only 600km, they are asking 60000 Euros for it.
Don’t drink and drive
No more Durex machaines in clubs, it’s alcohol analyzers now!!!

The hard goodbye
The goodbye was not an easy one, we were only 2 guys when we started this trip….and at some point we were around 20+…. friends meets friends and those friends meet other friends.. you make new friends, we were supposed to come back on the 16th, but they did not let us, and we just couldn’t resist the sea, the weather, the food, the people, and the great company of course.
Sorry for not posting much, it was not easy because we were always on the move, and we had so little time…we even didn’t have time to sleep…we never slept more than 4 hours a day….and once we slept in the car on the side of the road because we just couldn’t open our eyes any more and our hotel was only 15min away.
Greece is the kind of place that one would fall in love with, it has a character of its own…and it maintained that character despite all tourism, again you need to know when and where to go.
Yamas.
Another great day
Yesterday we went to Elounda, it’s about 15min drive form Agia Nicolas, the area has a lot of nice resorts, and its famous for it’s sea food cuisine, a lot of Greekinternational celebrities comes here for vacation… oh and its where Spinalonga Island is.
Again we spent the day on the beach then headed to one of the tavernas and had one hell of a dinner. Read more
