      Schnorcheln in Lia Beach

      30 de maio de 2022, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

      Heute waren wir in Lia Beach Schnorcheln 🤿. Zuerst sind wir mit einem Taxi 🚕 nach Lia- Beach gefahren. Das mit den Taxis hier ist ein bisschen speziell, denn hier bezahlt man, wie viele Personen mit dem Taxi fahren und nicht einfach das Auto. Als wir angekommen sind, haben wir zuerst unsere Badesachen angezogen. Danach hat jeder von uns einen Neopren Anzug, eine Taucherbrille, einen Schnorchel und Schwimmflossen bekommen. Dann sind wir mit einem Boot raus zu einem Riff gefahren. Es sind aber auch ein paar Leute mit uns mit dem Boot 🚤 rausgekommen, die aber mit einer Sauerstoffflasche getaucht sind. Wir sind dann rausgeschwommen und haben uns das Riff angeschaut. Es hatte zwar keine Korallen aber es war trotzdem schön. Wir haben auch ein paar Fische gesehen, einer war besonders farbig. Es war trotz des Neopren Anzuges sehr kalt 🥶, deshalb sind wir nicht sehr lange im Wasser 💦 geblieben. Danach sind wir wieder zurück gegangen und haben die Taucher-Ausrüstung zurück gegeben. Weil wir noch ein bisschen am Strand bleiben wollten, haben wir zwei Liegestühle gemietet. Sie waren sehr teuer (15 € pro Stuhl und Tag), aber es hatte sonst am Strand nirgends Schatten, darum haben wir es dann bezahlt. Danach sind wir ungefähr eine Stunde zu einem Restaurant gelaufen bei dem wir dann Znacht gegessen haben. Weil es zum laufen zu weit gewesen wäre, sind wir mit dem Taxi 🚕 zurückgefahren. Und sind dann schlafen 😴 gegangen.Leia mais

      Tag der Begegnungen

      3 de junho de 2022, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

      Heute war's drollig: mir sind lauter putzige Tierchen über den Weg gelaufen. Bergkatzen, Bergkühe, Bergraupen, ein kleiner Welpe - und am Schluss noch Ulrike (ohne Foto, aber trotzdem nett 😊)

      Der Plan war, es heute eher lau anzugehen, nur eben kurz nach Faros zu wandern und mich dort faul an den Strand zu setzen.

      Aber dann gab's auf dem Weg wieder so viel zu sehen.... 😁      Leia mais

      Insel Delos

      31 de maio de 2022, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

      Heute sind wir mit der Fähre von Mykonos nach Delos gefahren. Delos war früher das Zentrum von Griechenland. Dort hat es viele Ruinen von Häusern und Stadien. Wir sind auch noch ca. 15min. auf einen Hügel gelaufen. Dort haben wir Pfirsiche und Chips gegessen. Nachher haben wir noch Bilder aus Mosaik angeschaut. Dann sind wir zurück zum Schiff gelaufen weil die nächste Fähre schon bald fuhr. Am Ende sind wir mit der Fähre wieder zurück gefahren.Leia mais

      Erst Pflicht, dann Kür

      10 de junho de 2022, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

      Gestern haben Roswitha und ich dann endlich die Top Sehenswürdigkeit von Amorgos besucht. Ein Kloster (Panagia Chozoviotissa), dass in eine Felswand hinein gebaut wurde. Dieser Tage leben nur noch zwei ca. 70-jhrg. Mönche und ein Novize dort - aber es ist dennoch ein wichtiges religiöses Zentrum in den Kykladen.

      Und am Nachmittag haben wir uns dann gemütliche Lesestunden im Café gegönnt, bedacht von einem dichten Bougainvillea Teppich.

      Und: ich habe mein erstes "U-Boot" probiert: Fondant mit Mastix auf einem Löffel, der in ein Glas eiskaltes Wasser versenkt wird.      Leia mais

      Rule #8 (Santorini)

      12 de junho de 2022, Grécia ⋅ ⛅ 75 °F

      Never Say Never - I never thought in my wildest dreams, that I would see the whitewashed houses with contrasting blue rooftops that line the hillsides in Greece (let alone did I ever think I would take a trip half way around the world by myself)Leia mais

      Rule #11 (Mykonos & Delos)

      14 de junho de 2022, Grécia ⋅ ☀️ 75 °F

      * there is no rule against repeating a rule, in this case, rule #10 ~
      13 day vacation with 10 days at sea…also makes it easier to forget what day it is

      Visited Delos today - not really my thing (hope I’m not sounding ungrateful)… Archeological site…
      ALSO - a tour guide definitely makes or breaks the excursion…

      ALSO ALSO - don’t pet the kitties - someone was bit by one of them and was taken to the local hospital 😬

      ALSO ALSO ALSO - The excursion was 5 hours and during the last 1.5 hours I was able to explore the town (AKA shop) and that was the best part of the day 😂      Leia mais

      Made it to Santorini!

      3 de outubro de 2019, Grécia ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

      The flight to London was smooth, the flight to Santorini bumpy, but we arrived right on time at 4:15 p.m. The one little passport control cubicle was empty when we arrived, but thankfully we were the only flight arriving. By 5:15 we were through passport control and were driving out of the airport in our rental car. Joe had not brought the car GPS, though he thought he had, but in an uncharacteristic stroke of tech skills I was able to download google maps for Santorini and mainland Greece. And, even more amazing, it worked offline as it was supposed to!

      The touristy side of the island rings the volcanic crater, called the Caldera. We are about a two minute hike up to get to the Caldera side, but our hotel is on the other side of that high ridge, which means a sea view but no Caldera view. But the real benefit is that it is much quieter. Truth be told, though, it was one of only two hotels on the island that has an elliptical — and this one has a sea view!

      The island is very small, so by 6, Joe was taking a nap and I was on the elliptical. I also had time for a short walk along the Caldera, it was just gorgeous. We ventured out for dinner in the car around 8, but were gobsmacked by the crowds in Fira. I thought this wasn’t high season!!! We just kept driving till we found a place to park the car. It was in front of a supermarket, with not a restaurant in sight, so we just bought some food and wine (choice in red wine was one labeled “dry red wine” and the other “sweet red wine.” It is not up to my wine cellar friends’ standards.)

      But we are now on the terrace of our room, overlooking the pool, eating very yummy sheep cheese and salami on pita while sipping “dry red wine.”

      Tomorrow Ancient Thira and some island exploration. I will not be spending a lot of time shopping in Thira, of that you can be sure.      Leia mais

      Ruins!

      4 de outubro de 2019, Grécia ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

      Ruins and more ruins. First, we went to the Greek and Roman ruins of Ancient Thira, from about 900 BC to several centuries AD a city way up high with ruins of a theater, a garrison, lots of temples. Then we went to the really old ruins, a Minoan city from about 3000 BC. It had been buried in a volcanic eruption about 1500 BC. No human remains were found, so they must have had warning. Half the island was submerged, leaving the Caldera/crater, which has led some to speculate that this is where Atlantis was. Too bad that at both sites, all the frescoes, and most of the pottery and statuary have been placed in the Thira museum (and some, probably the best, went to Athens). So tomorrow we will have to go to the museum.

      After lunch on the Red Beach, we decided to brave the crowds and head for either Fira/Thira or Imervogli. Fira was just way too crazy, so on we went. Found a primo parking place in Imervogli, so we took advantage and spent several hours walking around, it is beautiful. Joe stayed in a cafe hanging on a cliff while I walked out to a nearby rock with gorgeous views. Unfortunately, I did not think I should do the last 50 m or so, it was pretty much scrambling on rock. But it was a good bit of energetic walking and nearly top views, while Joe sipped his 5 euro iced coffee.

      Crowds are pretty crazy, this is nothing like Sicily in October, where we had enormous parking lots all to ourselves! To give you some idea of the number of tourists — I was just looking for driving directions to the archaeological musem tomorrow. And google maps shows several stretches of “red” on the route now. And this is 9 pm on October 4!!!! I would not venture here in high season.      Leia mais

      Day in Fira

      5 de outubro de 2019, Grécia ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

      We woke up to bright sunshine, and decided to head for Fira — main city, cruise ship central, tourist shopping heaven. Our hotel had offered us a spot on a fancy boat tour around the caldera and to the volcano, but at 160 € a head, we thought it was a bit much. So we headed into Fira, found the big parking lot (which still had a few places at 10 am, thankfully), and walked down to the old port. From 1200’ above sea level to the port took about 20 minutes. We could have taken a donkey, but decided to walk. Once at the old port, we easily bought tickets for an 11 am boat tour, 20 € per person, thank you very much.

      We went to the hot springs, then to the island nearby where the only live crater is. It was a good climb up through the lava field, and it was so easy to see the outline of what used to be the island, till the volcanic eruption in 1500 BC that is. Amazing views.

      Once back in the port, Joe took the 3 minute cable car while I walked back up, dodging lots of donkey poop, hoping to beat him because the line was long. But he got there first. After lunch, we went to the prehistoric museum — I had never focused on Minoan artifacts and art, but these were really beautiful. Then some more walking along the twisty top paths with gorgeous views out, over the cliff towns, the sheer cliffs, and the turquoise water. It is truly beautiful, most beautiful view while eating an ice cream ever, but the tiny alleys of every kind of tourist trinket is not for me. We bought some great takeout and will soon be chowing down on our little terrace once again. Very happy to be here. 😋      Leia mais

      Island hopping

      7 de outubro de 2019, Grécia ⋅ 🌧 20 °C

      It was a bit complicated to drop off the rental car and get to the port in Santorini for the ship to Mykonos. The port is a teeny tiny place, no room for car rentals, lots of crowds and chaos. So we dropped off the rental car at the airport and took a van to the port. As we waited for our boat, we watched in amazement as busload after busload got picked up and others got dropped off. Pretty well organized, I must say, and those bus drivers can turn their huge vehicles on a dime. Very entertaining and a bit scary to watch them back up a busload to within 6 inches of the end of the dock, with no guardrail, no nothing. And then they maneuver around like they were riding a bicycle.

      The boat stopped at Ios and Naxos, and by 1 or so we were in Mykonos. We took the bus into town and then had about a half hour walk from the very top of the old town, down to the old port/harbor, and around to our hotel. Very nice views from where we sit! It has been cloudy with a few showers, so we have limited our time to a few walks around the port. I have NEVER seen as many tourist shops in one maze-like set of twisty-turvey lanes. There is absolutely nothing else here — it’s all for the tourist trade. Shopping on Mykonos, or anywhere for that matter, is not high on my list, but being here was the only way we could get out to the ruins on the uninhabited island of Delos, birthplace of Apollo among other things.

      We are going to have a late dinner and sleep in tomorrow. Looks like the rain is gone but we may have some clouds. So we will save the trip to Delos till Wednesday, which is forecast for cool and sunny.      Leia mais
