Wet, windy and not so wild Ios
... the usually 'pumping' streets of July to September were empty. And it was still wet and cold - no fun to be had here.
The next day we hired a car and went around the north and east side of the island along with a walk through Chora (Hora) village. The main village is on one side of a hill away from the port since ancient times. The side of the hill cannot be seen from any part of the sea, and ...

Reluctantly we caught the bus back to Far Out instead of staying out partying, but our bodies were definitely thanking us for ...

We spent the remainder of the day in the pool again, and found a very tasty gyros shop near the bakery that was a thousand times better than the restaurant from the night before. At the hotel's reception, we signed up for a day tour of the volcanoes and Oia since it went everywhere we wanted to go but couldn't easily get transport to!
The day tour the following day was absolutely worth it. We started off by going to ...
