Grand sunsets
... bit, I had a
look in the Greek orthodox church and then wandered around the town
for a bit. To get down from the town to the tender area, we could
catch the cable car down or ride down on donkeys. I decided to catch
the cable car down, it was a fast ride and soon it was over, then it
was a quick trip on the tender to the ship.
Once I got to the ship, I dropped my stuff in
the room, then went up to the top deck and watched the sun set. This

Vraiment, j’ai bien aimé cette île malgré sa grosseur. À deux heures, j’étais dans le port pour embarquer sur mon traversier.
En cours de route, le seul arrêt fut pour l’île d’Ios qui n’est pas trop loin de Santorin. Ayant la réputation ...
Santorini, Greece
... switchbacks and heavy traffic. The cost of the donkey ride was very close to the cost of the tram ride. Ridding a donkey up the side of a mountain was similar to Disneyland’s Mr. Toads Wild Ride; only on the side of a vertical mountain with short walls lining the outside of the trail. While riding on the donkeys you were sitting high above the wall so that you saw nothing stopping you from going over the edge of the cliff. We were extremely happy that the donkeys lived up ...
