Sophie do you know anything about the Island of Delos? My name originates from there and apparently it is the birthplace of Olympos? I have tried to find out more, but its very vague. I have been told that you are not permitted to stay there overnight  Is this true?

Delos is one of the Cyclades islands, in Aegean. It's name means "visable, obvious". They say that there, the sun light has the biggest clarity of any other place in the whole world.
It was the birthplace of the gods Apollo and Artemis. Their mother, Leto, run to this island to hide from Hera, the jealous wife of Zeus, and give birth to Zeus's illegal children 
Yes, it's true that you can't spend the night in the island. The tourists have to go before sunset. All the island is an archeological area and there is no civilization there.
I ll google for links and will let you know if I find something

The closest island to Delos is....MYKONOS! 
The greek partyland, where I promised to take Bod. Hadi join us. Of course, I hope you wont mind to take a tour to Delos alone, when me and Bod will be busy partying at the Super Paradise Beach in Mykonos
