    Another massive hike!

    July 31, 2022 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F

    Miles: 12.3 Steps: 26933
    Flights stairs: 55

    We decided to have a lazy morning / early afternoon today and hang out at our pool during the hottest part of the day. It’s a beautiful pool here and loved every minute - so refreshing, perfect temperature.

    We took off at 4:00 for another massive hike. We really haven’t attempted another big one since our Matterhorn 16 mile debacle. (Which still was spectacular regardless!). As I had said, Santorini is built on the ridge of a volcano - and it overlooks this massive water filled caldera. So we went on a hike that walks the entire rim!

    Our hostel is in the city of Fira and the end point is Oia. The Fira-Oia hike. The hike itself was about 7 miles, but of course we had to walk to the starting point, walk once we got to Oia, and walk back home from the bus stop … so it was a LONG ways again. But what an amazing view almost every second of the hike!!

    We stayed for sunset, found a little place to eat, and took the city bus back to Fira. And now we’re dead tired. But it was an amazing day!!!
