While in Santorini we stayed in a town called Oia, at the North of the Island.
Oia is a very popular spot for the cruise ships. This is what it looks like in October before the cruise ships arrive for the day. By 11 am, you'll want to be off the streets. We rented an ATV, and drove around the Island for the day before it's flooded with people. Here are some pictures we snapped before we got out of dodge.
If you choose to stay in a cave house on the cliff, you will have to navigate some crazy walkways. The better your view - the worse your walk. Roger and I let a young guy carry our luggage and he STILL made it up the steps before us. Our's were uneven cobblestone of varying heights!
We chose Oia for a couple of reasons - but one is that it is said to have the most beautiful sunsets in all of the WORLD?!? The world? Come'on, we weren't so impressed.
I was standing on Oia's boardwalk, this is my view to both sides, with the volcano caldera in front of me.
They like their churches in Greece. There must be one church for every 4 people.
