fira on thira


the santorini campground, we had the place to ourselves. but, we heard the thumping of the clubs in fira until about 5 in the morning. then the traffic noise and roosters started.

breakfast with grapes growing overhead




the trail from fira to oia was mainly a cobble stone path.

stacy and dina happy to be hiking!

hike on satorini

shalley and dina pausing to see what cave alex and I crawled out of.

we had an amazing sunny day, and we hiked about 6 miles along this edge.

this island is actually the volcano's crater


imerovigli, another small village between fira and oia

dina leaving us in the dust, as I stop to take yet another picture...

dina pausing to take in the view. we still had to drop down, and then hike the hill on the top left.

follow the sign right? actually, we asked a few locals about the trail, and not everyone was clued in to the beautiful trail in their backyard. they thought it would take too long, "there's a bus that goes too," they said.
