Here is some info to go with the pictures

^^^^In case you were unsure what this is, its one of the marble quarries. ^^^^

Friday’s excursion was to the island of Thassos. I think that it was the best part of the trip. We had a bus ride over to Keramoti, where we missed the ferry boat that we were supposed to take by mere seconds. It was ok though because one comes every 30 minutes. It is about a 30 minute trip over to Thassos, which is 6 miles away from the mainland. We got off the ferry in Limenas, which is also the capital of the island. While on the island we drove over to the Golden Sand Beach that I talked about. We got to go swimming there and ate at a restaurant that was there on the beach. We had the usual salad with bread, and then fish. There may have been a dessert, but I was to excited about the swimming to stick around and eat more. We were also able to catch some quick glances of the marble quarries that Thassos is famous for. I guess that the island is one of the largest producers of marble and is where snow white marble comes from, they also produce a grey colored marble. When we got back to Limenas we were able to walk around the town for a while before the busses left. There was a small amount of ruins in the area, and a lot of shops selling all kinds of things. After this we boarded the ferry back to Keramoti. That was pretty much the end of the day for me, I got back to the hotel and went to bed because I wanted to go around town Saturday.
