this trip was very special to me,because it was the first one after I finally finished with school and had the freedom to do everything I want,without anybody else controlling me!the only thing I wanted to do is find a nice place with great people to relax and so I did.i met many interesting people and it was a journey to remember!
Naxos, Cyclades, Greece malena.drelaWell, a very enjoyable last night in Santorini. had dinner at a lovely restaurant overlooking the sunset strip. Pity it wasn't the clearest of nights but still spectacular.
Dinner consisted of grilled pork with pureed red pepper and potatoes with cheese and Souvlaki Lamb with baked potato.
A 5.00 am start got us on to the flight to Athens then Rome.
After a sleep in we wandered into town to choose a suitable location for our anniversary dinner tonight (21 years!).
As usual we just had to take more photos ~ don't worry, after a few more tonight this will be all of Santorini.
Next, Italy where the forecast is 0 to 14 degrees. BRR BRR
... After an hour or so walking over the lava flows we motored on to some hot springs where hardier folk than us braved an icy plunge into the sea to reach the warm springs.(Hey we're used to tropical waters!)
Soon we moored at Thirasia Island for a couple of hours for lunch and Mythos at waterfront tavernas which are still much as they were 50 years ago.
Tomorrow is our last day here so we are making the most of the sun, as the forecast for Italy is bloody freezing

Our two stops in the greek islands were both incredible and worlds apart. Santorini was an amazing place that seemed too surreal to be true. We were greeted by a barren mountainous island in the shape of a crescent that had been the result of volcanic activity in the area. Most of the passengers opted for the cable car to get from the port to Fira, the city perched on the mountains above the port. We however chose to ride the donkeys up 600 odd ...
I have obviously fallen behind on my blogging so for now I will just put a link to the girls' blog until I get a chance to catch up myself, which will hopefully happen when I start to get settled here in India. Their post can be found here

... home. The water was quite rough and it took me a while to get used to it but I got the hand of it and the salt and had one of my best runs ever. I'm counting on my fellow wake boarders to send me pictures as their cameras are waterproof. For dinner we had all you can eat pizza made by an italian chef working in Greece. It was delicious can't wait to eat the food in Italy. I had a great sleep after ...
Ios, Greece dfurler... considered Turkey for a good while there, but changed my mind as I don't really have the proper attire and am kind of liking the beach bum lifestyle too much to give that up for another two weeks. Who knows, I'm flying by the seat of my pants and liking it that way. I am off to dinner now, but just though I would check in as I knew that "email" (mom) was on it's way!!! ;) ;) Hope all is good back home, my tan is coming along but it needs some more work so until Mykonos!
Ios, Greece steph_444... on the automobile into serious question. 6. On that note, I've nearly died about 12 times due to insane car drivers and double decker buses whizzing at me in no orderly fashion whatsoever. Especially in the UK, where traffic is as back asswards as you can imagine. And it's hard to get used to looking right when you're used to looking left, and so on. 7. The U.S. dollar is WEAK. Traveling through Europe, where ...
Ios (an island you douches), Greece redrevolveri'm about to scoot down to the beach for a couple of hours for my last relaxing moments here in greece... this is going to be my last entry about my travels this summer. last night was still party central here, even though it was sunday night. people go out at 1am and party until 8 in the morning. i am definitely too old for all that crazy ibiza-style partying, but i still had a good time ...
