Under the shining sunlight, everything seem so beautiful. But it is a little heavy for me to take them home.

The cats you see in this picture are not heavy.

I love those stalls where you can buy peanuts, pumpkin seeds and things like that - this is what I consider genuine Greece!

You can't go to Greece without getting lots of worry beads for your friends and family back home. Budget for about 3-5 euro per set. Although, remember that the Greeks love to haggle.
