Santorini, Greece

We have spent this last week on the wonderful Greek Isle of Santorini. Planning for this stop of our trip, we had no intentions of doing anything but relaxing. After sightseeing and moving from city to city for months, we were looking forward to hitting beaches and sauntering through wonderful white cities perched on cliffs. Believe it or not, we did exactly that. With no real agenda for our time here, we enjoyed days of sun, exploring the island on our rented quad, and peeking in numerous shops in the towns around the island. Needless to say, we were in straight up holiday mode and enjoyed every minute of it. Santorini really is a beautiful island that lived up to our expectations in full.

Unfortunately, our six days here have come to an end.
Fortunately, we move on to another Greek gem - the island of Crete!
