The first adventure was driving to Elia Beach and getting stuck behind a herd of cows for about 5 minutes. When the farmer finally got his cows across the road and we were able to get by the guy in the red Mini Cooper yelled at him. I can understand getting pissed off at some jaywalker or somebody driving too slow or even stalled in the middle of the street. But to yell at a guy taking his cows out for a walk? Sorry the cows cut into 5 minutes of your precious beach time but enjoy the moment. How often in your life do you have to stop for cows? Actually I was pretty surprised to see cows on Mykonos. I assumed that by now any farmland would have been sold for villas or hotels. Its good to know that there are still cows, goats and sheep on Mykonos.
