We woke up to this sight in Pylos. (Notice the private pools to the left...what do you do with a private pool?! Kids? Have sex? We can see everything in those pools. What's the point?!)

 We packed up and drove to Pyrgos where the famed Dirou caves are. Good thing neither of us are claustrophobic because it was a teeny tiny tunnel. Our boat captain didn't speak any English so we didn't get a guided tour, but it seemed pretty self explanatory; stalagmites, stalactites, water, dripping, limestone.

 I was freaking out about the depths in this cave. Most of the time, the water was very shallow, but there were a few caverns here and there that were up to 100 feet deep. I get very frightened of deep open water, or worse, water with rocks in it.

 No pictures that I took do justice to this cave. Granted, I turned the flash off for the boat portion because I didn't want to ruin the tour for the other 4 people on the tour. This was my first real cave (Injun Joe's cave at Disneyland and Eberle winery doesn't count)

When we emerged from the cave, this is what we saw. How can water even be this clear?! We drove off to Nafplio, another small sea town. It's not a destination for Americans I think. It felt more like a place that rich Europeans go to go on vacation rather than America. Fine by me as I was tired of hanging around annoying americans!
