Lindos Acropolis

Hello, just some sightseeing pics today as didn't wear anything special, just the jeans and cardigan you saw in this post http://fashionchuhi.blogspot.gr/2013/03/blue-sea-blue-sky-ancient-ruins-and.html but this time with a white vest top. Anyhoo, we went on a donkey up to the acropolis today which has Roman ruins, Hellenic ruins and loads more. It was awesome :D

All those white houses are Lindos, where we're staying, isn't it adorable? I totally caught the sun today, so am pink in random patches, but not too much. However you may be getting some faceless pics from me till the pinkness subsides, haha! I'm such a Brit abroad! Right, bedtime for me! Happy Easter guys! Hope you're having a fab holiday!

Last night's dinner

...was delicious! And here's a quick pic of what I wore...

...and where I wore it to...

Unfortunately must stop procrastinating and get back to my uni work, but I'll put up some pictures of our trip to the Lindos acropolis by donkey later!

Going for a paddle

It was pretty cold, but so blue and clear! It's really late here, like 1.50am so off to bed. Night!

Blue Sea, Blue Sky, Ancient Ruins and a Medieval Town

Today was gloriously sunny and we spent most of the day in the Old Town of Rhodes. We also took a trip up a mountain to see an old monastery and some amazing views. There were so many peacocks there, and I think it might be mating season as the males were totally facing off with each other. They're so noisy! I also didn't know peacocks could fly (I know, I know...) I mean I thought they were like chickens, like low flying scrappy kinda thing, but apparently not! We went back into Rhodes Old Town for dinner and saw these cute medieval windmills (last picture) before we stuffed our faces at a fantastic restaurant. So far I'm loving Rhodes!

Oh yeh, we also drove through Faliraki but it was completely closed! Even the supermarkets had empty shelves, so weird! Although probably much more attractive than an open Faliraki!

Lindos

Hey guys. So currently I'm on holiday, yay! I'm on the Greek island of Rhodes, staying in a cute little village called Lindos. We're here right at the start of the season though, so it's REALLY quiet and hardly anything is open, haha! Today we took a walk around the village as you can see in photos 1 & 2 then we took a drive inland and found these amazing castle ruins! I changed my hat to a headband for this as it was a little chilly, not really floppy hat weather. Then, as it's my Dad's birthday, we went out for an awesome meal in Lindos. Sorry about the selfie and the moody look! It's the best I can do! I had brought a dress to wear tonight, but it was way too cold, so wore this instead! We're off to the capital Rhodes tomorrow. Right, bed for me! Hope you're all having a fun Easter!

Snow Monkeys!

Hey so this is what I got up to this weekend. These are the only monkeys in the world (I think) that bathe in a hot spring. They're so cute!

Up in the Air

Excuse the moody face, we hardly got any sleep before leaving for the flight back home around 7am. I love these new trousers from H&M and my choker! Clearly comfort is key on a plane but there's no need for tracksuits and pajamas!

Hong Kong 2

The weather said thunderstorms for Hong Kong before I left but it was actually pretty warm and humid so very glad I packed this maxi skirt. This was on our third day when we woke up rather hungover and spent the day wandering around the city and enjoying afternoon tea at the Penisula (a truly British colonial experience). The top photo is from the entrance to a Mosque. We also visited the Botanical And Zoological Gardens, which are free! I bought the boots you can just see at the Ladies Market on Kowloon. I love paring maxi skirts and dresses with clumpy boots for Autumn, plus it's added comfort points! Am also feeling the side knot for my hair when it's a little worse for wear right now, it's something a bit different than just a topknot or a normal bun.

Hong Kong

Sorry I've not blogged in a week or so, the internet at home has been down (wireless still is) and then I spent 4 days in Hong Kong with my boyfriend. Hong Kong is awesome btw! This is from Hong Kong Park on our way to the tram to go up to the top of the Peak.

Bali Photo Diary 3: Elephants

These elephants are rescued from logging camps in Sumatra and taken to Bali. They can't be taken back to Sumatra as their habitat is disappearing from the logging. Our elephant was called Tia and she's 28 years old. Best day of my life!

Our hotel, monkeys, rice fields, traditional Balinese dance.
