Touring the Island with Mike

On a nice day in mid-winter, Mike, an American-Greek who owned the hostel we were staying at, took us for a tour around the Island in his little blue car. He first took us to the red sand beaches further down the island. On the bottom of the cliff, near the waterline, were caves in the rockface that Mike told us were used by fishermen. HE then took us to a winery which had a beautiful view of the Mediterranean and Omonia and was the location of Mike's daughter's wedding. The last place he took us was to an old tomato press factory near a marina. Further down the beach from where we parked, was a nude beach--but don't worry, it is only in use during the summer when it's warmer.
