Oia 1
Getting into the postcard business should be a snapWe are loving our time in Imergovilli even though we can't spell it, or pronounce it.
Apparantly the place to go for all the scenic postcard type shots, (you mean we havn't had the really good ones yet???) is Oia which we saw by boat the other day.
Apart from us hard core kiwi adventurers who have been walking everywhere, most people seem to use donkey or quad bike to get around.
Not wanting to be outdone, but mainly not wanting to walk all the way to Oia, we hired a couple of quad bikes and headed off.
For the record, I got mine up to 53 kmph on the downhill, (Steve claims 55) but the girls thought we had them under control the whole time.. how nice of them to have such blind faith in the face of death 😊
Oio is amazing as these shots will testify, a little further from the main town which might have been a bit of a pain had we stayed here, but I was able to buy a chocolate donut so as far as I was concerned, most of the requirements of a civilized community were met.
We took a few shots of
Oia 2
Gentleman, start your engines the famous Santorini churches, soaked up the atmosphere, and then headed back as we thought Mike, Kirsty & Jase might want to check it out too.
Unfortunately they were too busy growing moustaches and being mexican and so couldn't quite fit it into their schedule.
Oh well, maybe next time.
