there were so many beautiful places there. but my favorite place was out on the roof of the church. there's an
apartment above the sanctuary (which is where we stayed), and it opens out onto the roof... if you look real close you can see a couple people up there on the right, above the church's name.anyways, you can't see it in the picture, but around the other side of the tower on the left, there was a little concrete landing where you could go and sit, and it looked over the whole square (the church was on this square called the platilla terpsithea). i went out there every morning for my q.t. before we'd leave for whatever was going on that day. it was just a real peaceful place for me.
the night we left greece, i went out there at like 2am and just sat and watched the cars and
people below, for probably close to an hour. the funny thing was, i'd been sick the majority of the past 48 hours and had some different frustrations before that, and honestly was ready to be back in the states. but at 2am, i suddenly wanted to just stay on that roof forever.there's a part of my heart still on that roof... still with those people... still 8 time zones away...
