Here are a few nice shots from our Santorini visit.
First, there's CJ, the quintessential tourist on board the fast catameran ferry from Crete to Santorini.
We paid 15 Euros extra for "business class" and shared the upper deck with 2 other couples. Two friendly crew members served us frapaccino's during the trip. The rest of the passengers were packed like sardines below. We got some "inside scoop" from one of the crew, about the sunken cruise ship off the Santorini port.and here's the view through our toes in our "upgraded room" at the Blue Dolphins:
Amazing vistas along our walk into Fira
and a nice group shot with Cathy, one of our fellow hotel-mates (from Australia):
We enjoyed a lovely visit to the Santos Winery, sampled some nice white wines with a plate of bread, cheese and olives and enjoyed the amazing view.
And then finished the day watching the sunset at Amoudie (below Oia) at the north tip of the island. This is a very active fishing port, and we were able to watch the fisherman come in while eating dinner at one of the little tavernas along the port.
Three nights in Santorini and then up early (no one mentioned the beautiful Santorini sunrise!) to the airport and off to Athens.
hope you're all well, 'till next time,
K & CJ.
