Thank you guys for your kind words...One thing I noticed is that the island was full of Italians this season...I talked with many of them and they seemed to have a great time...Ios is an island for those who are 25 years old and younger and love clubbing...And of course don't go there with your girlfriend, or else there'll be trouble!!:lol:
