Gorgeous Santorini
Highlight of the cruise!
We started the day with a donkey ride to Fira town. Plodding slowly up the hill gave us time to admire the gorgeous view. We met Joe's friend Andonio (Greek Coast Guard) and spent about an hour with him in a trendy cafe. Then Andonio called his friend who owns a car rental company to do him a favor and let us borrow a car for the day (free of charge). So, for the 20 Euros of gas we put ...

I decided to get changed right away, which turned out to be really windy for the ride over to our last stop of Thirissa.
