Day 9 - Santorini

 Monday 22nd May 2017

Awoke this morning just sailing into the caldera of Santorini.  Spectacular.  We think it was over 35 years since we were here on a day trip from Crete with Sandra.

Once things had quietened down we took the local tender ashore.  We had decided to take the cable car up to Fira village rather than the poor donkeys, one of us had tried that before and didn't want to repeat the experience. 
 
View from the Cable Car of the donkey track and the village on top of the cliff
 
Once up the top we had a walk around the village with lots of photo stops. 
 
 
Various views from the town of Fira,
 
Found a much needed ice cream shop. 

Then back to ship for coffee and some sunbathing. 

Opened our "welcome on board" Champagne for a pre dinner toast. 

Tonight's dinner in the Beach House, steak on lava rock, excellent. 

Tonight's entertainer didn't catch the ship due to the problems BA had, so watched a movie instead.
