Hydra Part Two

The next morning we woke up pretty early, 8:30 or so, and got breakfast.  I had an omelets which is pretty common in Europe.  It was good and filled us up so we could walk around the city.  We walked around and stumbled right back into a little jewelry shop, where the artist was sitting there making jewelry.  Although there are tons of jewelry shops yet none of them made the jewelry themselves.  The artist, Zoe(which means "life" in Greek) told us about each piece of jewelry.  I ended up splurging on a ring with a green precious gem and a polished shell half.  It is absolutely beautiful, and another one of those souvenirs that you can only find in one place.  We asked Zoe if she had a website and she said she didn't really believe that it was a good idea because then her jewelry would not be unique and special, I like that.  This ring looks hand-made, but in a good way.  Anyways, I can't believe how quickly things are flying here.  I have tons of homework and there is just no time to recover at each port, but I just get sleep when I can.
