Island Hoping and closing the season

From the Pireus, Athens' harbour, we took a slow ferry to our first destination Santorini. Slow ferry means 14 hours, while we could do it in 6 hours.








You've all seen Santorini before, it the post card and calendar Island! A bit artificial but very nice with spectacular views from the cliff.















The Island is litterally full of tourists during the day coming from their huge cruise ships, but just before sundown, they all sail away, so we had the whole Island for ourselves.









Here is a view before taking our ferry to the next destination: Mikonos



Mikonos looks more like a real place, and more genuine. Here's the view from our hotel.


Just like Santorini the Island is full during the day but very relaxed in the evening.

vous êtes mignons dans la nuit avec les petites maisons illuminées derrière vous. Ca me rappelle noël en Colombie avec les illuminations et la colline où il y avait une crèche géante toute illuminée
