Straight from the movies
October 21, 2006
"I love you. I have loved you all along. I miss you. Been far away for far too long. I keep dreaming you'll be with me and you'll never go. Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore." -Far Away, Nickelback
So of course such a sad heart wrenching song would be going through my head after a fantastic day in Santorini. And I have got to be the only person in the world who was sitting in te most gorgeous place I have ever seen and wanting to go home. Real home in the US. Or rather...Florida. But anyway, it really was an awesome day! We took a day long tour. A sailboat picked us up at the ferry port and took us to the still active volcano in the center, Caldera. We hiked to the top and it had amazing views! Our tour guide told us that whole history of Santorini, and its so crazy! But so cool! And so was our tour guide. He knows so much and fluently speaks at least six languages, Greek, English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian.
After the volcano we went to another volcano thats in-active. We jumped off the boat side and swam into thermal springs, which, in all honesty were not bery thermal...that water was COLD! Then we docked at Thissia (I think its called...) for lunch. The food was good but a little pricey...they trick you by having a cafeteria line without prices...and they didn't say bread was 2Euro a slice! We were used to getting it for sitting down in Athens! We walked along the dock but there wasn't much.
The last stop was Oia...what I have been waiting my whole time in Greece to see! Most gorgeous place on earth! And the spot for filming for the movie haha. We rode donkeys up the cliff...it was SO cool and kind of funny. The California guys found us there because when they came to see the sunsets a few days earlier it had stormed. Those famous sunsets...absolutely gorgeous! It was amazing, pictures will help but not give it justice!
