Day 10 – Farewell Oia and the beautiful cave homes
It was time to say good bye to our beautiful cave home and head for athens. We spent a good hour playing tetris to fit all our newly aquired wine collection, the estimation is that our main bag now weighed close to 90 pounds. So we started the accent of the 42 stairs, one stair at a time. It didn’t seem like a bad idea at the time when buying the wine however it quickly became apparently that the bag was bloody heavy.
Day 9 – What do you mean Brazilian two piece?
Today we had arranged for a boat ride around the island stopping at a few places for a swim and stopping for a snorkle. This also included a bbq lunch onboard. We took our climb out early after breakfast (SC: 714) to catch the minivan outside of our now favourite bakery down to the port where we boarded our catamaran that we would sail around Santorini on.
The first stop in for our cat boat was the hot spings. There was two other groups of australians on the meow express as we quickly came to be aware of due to their accent and calling things like a bbq a barbie and talking about shitters (toilets).
Day 8 – Beach this way, I don’t think so.
Today we had decided to go to the beach for a nice swim. Rose had suggested some beaches that were good for swimming and after a nice Greek breakfast we headed out (SC: 462). Rose had pointed to some points on the map which we went to, there were no beaches that we could see ANYWHERE near where he had marked on the map. So after about 45 minutes of driving and only finding one VERY shady (as in, I think they are going to strip my car while I swim) beach we decided to turn back and visit the beach that we knew existed, Ammoudi Beach.
