It was another relaxing day. The wind started to blow here last night. Today there is also a very strong wind, which can reach 28 mph. This happens to be the best time to watch the sea tide ebb and flow and to recall days gone past and loved ones from another time.
Passing through the winding alleys, we went to “Little Venice” to see the sea again. We sat there and listened to the sound of the sea beating against the shore. We also visited some small shops selling souvenirs and took many more photos of the alleys. We will go to Santorini tomorrow morning. We have really enjoyed all the picturesque spots we encountered around every corner of streets of Mykonos. I hope I will have the opportunity to visit here again in the future, maybe with my sister and mother.
昨天晚上的日落 (Last night’s Sunset)小威尼斯，抓拍到了一个比较小的浪。这里之所以叫小威尼斯就是因为那些直接建在大海上的房子，和威尼斯的建筑很类似 (Little Venice, a relatively small wave was perfectly captured. This place is called Little Venice because the houses are built directly on the sea and are reminiscent of the buildings in Venice.)一个小教堂 (A small church, there’s a story here too but I’m too lazy to tell it)小教堂的房顶，可以看见远处的岛中心的房屋 (The roof of the chapel, you can see the houses in Mykonos town center in the distance)又是那几个风车 (Those ubiquitous windmills again)没有署名的雕像 (Unsigned/unnamed statue, maybe a founder of the church?)这里不多见的植物中的一株茂盛的仙人掌 (A lush cactus among the rare plants here)这里的居民有多幸福，每天能看到这么美的景色 (How happy the residents must be here; they can see such beautiful scenery every day)又是一个小教堂 (Another small church)纪念品店 (Souvenir shop)又是一小纪念品店 (It’s another small souvenir shop)我俩在这个这个烤肉串的地方吃的午饭，我会有一篇关于美食的图片总会 🙂 (We had lunch at this kebab place, I will have a separate post about the food :))美丽的一角 (A beautiful corner)这个小店的名字叫“臭名昭著的米科诺斯”，哈哈 (The name of this little shop is “The Notorious Mykonos”, haha)又一个小教堂，据说整个米科诺斯岛上有600-800个教堂/小礼拜堂，只是科诺斯岛中心就有大概60个教堂/小礼拜堂。岛上的许多教堂的历史可以追溯到 19 世纪之前的拜占庭时代，并已被希腊文化部列为历史古迹。作为米科诺斯人的习俗的一部分，岛上建造的一些小教堂是将为了将逝去的家庭成员骨头放在神殿中。(Another small church, it is said that there are 600-800 churches/chapels on Mykonos Island, but there are about 60 churches/chapels in just this town. Many churches on the island date back to the Byzantine era before the 19th century and have been listed as historical monuments by the Greek Ministry of Culture. As part of the customs of the Mykonos, some small churches were built on the island to place the bones of deceased family members in the temple.)
