Santorini

---

We arrived safely in Santorini on a ferry at 4 am and are staying at a hotel a block from the black beaches of Perissa.

Time for the wine tours, volcano, and tonight the sunset over the Caldera!

We split up a bit for the day with Jessica and Jeanna heading up the beach front. Aisha, Aliya, Aditi, Megs, KJ, Me (Melissa) and George (who we met at the internet cafe in Milos) traveled around Santorini. It is beautiful there. We took the day to walk around, shop, take in the local culture and watch the sunset over the Caldera. The night we spent playing Uno, and other card games and chatting. All while enjoying the beautiful location, at our not so beautiful hotel! The showers were missing curtains or doors, and the spray went everywhere. I think we cleaned more of the bathrooms then ourselves!

Off to more adventures.

Miss ya!

I finally got to sit down and read with only 100 interruptions from the kids!! It looks absolutely beautiful and sounds wonderful. Hope our family can get there someday.
