I have a great news regarding the shower situation! We arrived in Pylos this afternoon to our new hotel that we'll be staying at for the next two days until we go back to Athens. Not only are the showers far better at retaining water but the water stays warm and the shower heads are also fully operational. The only downside to the shower is that it's really hard to move in the shower but I'll take what I can get. Anyway, I'm sure everyone would love to hear about something rather than my eternal struggle with Greek showers.

Our new hotel at Pylos is great, it's right on the bay of Pylos and my room has a great view of the water. It's even been sunny here all day which is a pretty nice change compared to the rain that we had the past two days. The bus ride from Nafplion from to Pylos was pretty brutal, it consisted of driving through mountains so the bus driver kept on having to double back with the winding roads. In all reality the doubling back wasn't so bad, I only got a little car sick, the worse part was the rattling and shaking from the bus each time we hit the smallest thing. Kramer's snoring also kept me entertained, apparently he's a heavy sleeper and he kept snoring to the point that James, Zakea, and Keegan couldn't stop laughing. On our way to Pylos, we stopped at this really cool  Venetian fortress that was closeby. We got to wander around the fortress, we even found the lighthouse there. Even though the fortress wasn't part of the course at all, it was probably one of the cooler things I've seen. After we were forced to go back to the bus, we took a short ride and got to the hotel and as I've said before it is AWESOME. :) :)

All in all the 5 hours that I've been in Pylos have rocked, this place is great. I got a hot shower, the room is awesome, we got to wander around an old fort...WOOHOO. Good day. I've also had one of the best meals on this trip while I've been here. A group of about eight of us went to a sit-down cafe and shared an assortment of appetizers. Tzatziki. Greek Salad. Saganaki. Meatballs filled with Feta cheese. Olives. The whole thing was totally worth the 7 euro.
