An overcast morning.

We took the bus to Akrotiri and walked to the red beach.

On the trek back from the red beach, heading towards the Akrotiri bus stop, Hubs took a liking to a seaside restaurant called The Cave of Nikolas. And I'm forever grateful to his keen restaurant eye because it was one of my favorite meals of the trip. Fish tomato balls, yes, they're better with fish. Decadent moussaka. Hearty stuffed pepper and tomato. Good house wine. Just heaven. A giant meal with wine for 31.50 euros.

And a complimentary yogurt desserts that was too cute.

Santorini is a most popular destination for cruise ships. There were usually three of them parked in the bay near Fira. This one is disembarking.

A Nescafe frappe and a Greek coffee at The Meteor Cafe. This place is cute, a little funky, a good place to write.
