We had intended going to Hora, the town centre of Mykonos, today, but Bill had AF last night so we had a quiet morning sitting by the pool at our resort, listening to 70's music and catching up with the blog. Songs such as Knights in White Satin by the Moody Blues, I Want to Know What Love Is by Foreigner, I'm Not in Love by 10cc and Every Breath You Take by Police wafted over the pool area. I had several swims and enjoyed a resort day while Bill slept. Tonight we went with Valerie and Tom to Agios Yiannis where the movie, Shirley Valentine was actually made. It was just a 20 minute walk from our hotel, but we took a taxi because the roads are so narrow and there are no footpaths. I think you would take your life in your hands if you walked. The Shirley Valentine restaurant had no tables set up on the beach, so we ate at the large restaurant where she worked and where the tables would have been set up for her in front of the restaurant on the beach. The food was not as good as at our beach restaurant at Ornos beach and it was twice as expensive. The staff seemed disinterested in what we wanted. Tom and I were served our meal early and we had finished it before Valerie and Bill were served about 35 minutes later. The view of the setting sun over the sea and the surrounding mountins was spectacular. Maybe the place for a glass of water as even the red wine had a brown colour to it. As Bill said, the only show of interest in us was from the cat who was keen on our left over fish.
