Beautiful Santorini

It was a little chaotic in the lobby Tuesday morning as there were a number of tours leaving the hotel at the same time. Our driver was about 20 minutes late and had difficulty finding a place to stop with all the activity. The drive to the port gave us another chance to see the city. The line up to get on the ferry was long but moving quickly and the ferry was huge. We had assigned seating and as it was a fast ferry we weren't allowed outside. We stopped at several islands and the loading/unloading process was amazing. It was a full travel day and we arrived in Santorini in the late afternoon. Getting off the ferry was wild, us and about 500 others trying to get down three sets of stairs and find our way out the back ramp. Total pandemonium. Our driver was waiting and the trip to the hotel was a great introduction to Santorini. The road was a series of switchbacks up and over a very large cliff. At times we had to stop to let the downward busses pass. We were staying in Kamari which was a wonderful beach town on the opposite side of the Island. Our hotel, the Terra Blue was a small family run business at the base of the cliff. Our views of both the cliffs and the ocean were stunning. We had a wonderful dinner at the Taverna Danas and explored the area. It was a short walk to town and about a 10 minute walk to the beach.Okumaya devam et
