...This review,at least,is mine 100%. It can be found in a couple of sites as well, but it's not my fault.Now you can decide if you want to read this op or not. -If "Yes"...go on and happy reading. -If "No" click back and rate me as "unhelpful" if you like ------------------------------------------------------------------ I apologize that I’ve putted my op about Mykonos under the section for general info about Greece, but I didn’t know that I could create a sub-category.

...Situated on the northeastern corner of the cyclades, Mykonos is well known for its extensively narrow street and party atmosphere.
