Graduation Trip to Malia...

While I was heading to Italy, Veronica was flying to Crete, one of the Greek Isles, along with about 60 of her classmates. She shared a room with Adelina, Maria and Wendy at a hotel in Malia, a big party city. Days were usually spent sleeping late and then hanging by the pool or on the beach.

Veronica was all smiles as she had her first summer fling, ironically with a boy she’d paid no attention to at school (and vice versa).

Due to the Greek economic crisis, the kids got two extra free nights as an incentive not to cancel their trip. The weather was fantastic the entire nine days.

Nights usually consisted of pre-drinks at Veronica’s room, walking around midnight into town to go to a bar (a particular favorite was this one with swings), then heading to a club to go dancing at 2 a.m. They usually ended back at their respective rooms about 4 a.m. Here's a video of her adventures.
