just a quick update, we are in an internet cafe in santorini while waiting for our ferry back to athens. greece is amazing :)
athens is awesome, a big mix between ancient, old and modern. it is really hard to describe, but like walking down the road on one side of you is taxis, and a major road - then on the other side is some ancient pillar or statue and a view of the acropolis. i think they have done a great job of preserving a lot of the history. a lot of the streets are small and narrow and mainly walking only, which is awesome. lots of fun, unique little shops. the acropolis was unbelieveable, seriously amazing. a gorgeous view of the city as well :)
santorini is like a paradise. coming into the island from the ferry there are no words, these gorgeous cliffs and white buildings all carved into the cliffs and just gorgeous. simply gorgeous. the island is amazing, we saw an amazing sunset from oia last night, went to the black sand beaches of perissa and have walked all around the caldera.
we are headed back to athens, where tomorrow we are going to walk around the markets in the plaka and montastraki and then also the sunset from the biggest hill. wednesday we are going to the temple of poseidon and then catching our fight back to dublin.
lots of amazing pictures, i can't wait to upload them :)
sending love from greece!
