The Hot(t) Beaches

Santorini Day 5
Sunday August 24

We spent the afternoon at Perivolas (I’m totally making up the spelling) on the black sand beaches. It was absolutely gorgeous! The sand was burning hot but then again what do you expect from small black pebbles that sit in the sun! Here’s the only picture I got at the beach. Why didn’t you take more pictures at such a beautiful beach? Excellent question. Answer: This was the ONLY shot I could get without someone topless or a couple making out. So enjoy!

We headed back to Fira for an early dinner of chicken souvlaki in pita at this little hole in the wall restaurant which was absolutely delicious!! And what topped it off was a glorious medley of American pop music form the 80’s and 90’s. So not only did we get a fabulous meal we got a sing-a-long too!

On our way to Perivolas this morning we met three guys from England who were here on holiday who we met up with later to discuss the many stereotypes of our two countries. After a MUCH earlier night we are back at our villa and going to steal a couple of precious hours of sleep before we leave at 5:45 for Athens.

Goodbye from Santorini.
