Back on Santorini after many years. First time there in 1975. A lot has changed of course. As it has everywhere. Tourism has not always been kind to places such as this, but many places remain where Greece can still be found.
Trip to Santorini, July 2000
Travelling alone gives one the opportunity to shoot a lot of self-portraits in the landscape. This one is on a boat in the crater.
The beautiful blue water in the crater of Santorini. The bottom here is dark due to the lava and it sometimes gives the water an ominous look.
These are the feet that walked up and down well over 600 steps, shunning the aid of mules, and up to the volcanic crater right at around mid-day. Thanks Dr. Scholls.
Me on top of the crater.
Oia after having survived the 260 steps up from the port.
View down from Oia.
Just back at the hotel from the beach.
The Hotel is the Sea Side. Family run hotel and restaurant. Yorgo, Evi, Manos, Nikos and of course nonna...or yaya(?) Friendly family atmosphere and good food.
