Santorini day 1

An early morning wake up to catch the bus to take us to the ferry enroute to Santorini! 1.5 hours later we pulled up to the majestic cliffs at the harbour! Our mini van driver piled us in and we drove up the mountain and were blown away by the view.

We were dropped off and then proceeded to walk up the stairs over cobblestones to our accommodation. We are staying in a lovely room with the most magnificent view, and below us is the bustling streets lined with shops, restaurants and plenty of Greek delights! We checked in, dropped off our bags and walked the streets getting to know our surroundings. We are close to the cable car and famous Donkey track. We walked along the edge of the cliff and I was pinching myself that I am in the Greek Islands and Santorini of all places!!
We met up with some of the group in a bar and I ordered a sparkling water which was 7 Euro! Obviously paying for the view! Off to the mini mart for me from now on!!

In the late afternoon I had a snooze and then we watched the sunset from our balcony, We met a few of the group for dinner in the local square and enjoyed a Greek lamb souvlaki. Santorini is just so incredibly picturesque and I can understand why it is such a bucket list destination.Read more
