Adventure in Santorini Pt2

So the adventure continues!

We now had our luggage back and we were in the mood to get some hard core relaxing done. It was nice just to have a couple of lazy days of walking and drinking iced coffee. The town or Oia is not very big but being a volcanic island there are a lot of steps! I'm hoping we burnt more calories then we ate..... but probably not.



This was one of the most impressive sets of steps and you cant even see all of them in this pic. Me and Fee did them a couple of times as there was some nice seafood places at the bottom.



This is where the steps lead you to and we could actually see this from our room. This is where a lot of the tour boats pulled in so we would make sure to head down when the place was NOT crawling with tourists.

As I mentioned before the sun set is rather famous and rightly so. We had a front row seat every night but people would line up and sit on rooftops just to get a good view.

Now thats a view!



The picture can't really do it justice but the colours were amazing.




Pretty lady on a pretty island.




This reminded us of Denmark.




Not sure what I was looking at ....


 We spotted this little island and we kind of hoped it was the home of some kind of Bond villain!



This guy just hung out there most days keeping an eye on us tourists.



For the most part* the food was great on the island and this was once of the best meals. That desert was Mascarpone with white chocolate and berries..... I MUST RECREATE IT!


*Fish is very fresh on the island but shell fish and most stuff like Squid is frozen and imported in. So that can be a little disappointing if you are not aware of it. So just stick to the amazing fresh fish.
