OPA!

Hello my sweet friends! It is difficult for me to believe I was actually in Greece! The weather wasn't the best, but I had an amazing time. The architecture was beautiful - the history Greece holds is astonishing. It was almost surreal - there I was, standing in front of the Acropolis. As in, it wasn't a postcard, I was legit there! If I had to state everything day-by-day, that blog would be entirely too long. A picture is worth a thousand words, right? So here are tons of photos from my trip - enjoy! And you want to hear the day-by-day, then we'll grab coffee. Yamas!
Strikers on Day 1

One of the oldest churches in Greece

The Plaka

My little foot next to this big shoe. I guess the men in Greece have big feet - you know what that means... Large shoes!

Santorini

You can see the ripples in the water being made by the wind -- this was the windiest day

Black beaches

The grapes are grown by forming the vines in a basket shape, to protect the grapes from the harsh winds in Santorini. Santorini is known for their red wine.

See the zig zag? Yep, we walked all. the. way. down. it.
Everyone's legs were cramping up the next day. Where are the bananas?

Volcano

I love it.

Instead of walking back UP the zig zag, some people decided to ride the donkeys back up

I took the cable car back up.
