Cruising-Santorini, Greece, Day 7,8, June 25,26,2009

Today was the day off that we welcomed. It's nice to have nothing to do except for pool side drinks and an evening of dining and dancing. Today, I also consumed about two hours just walking the decks and taking photographs of this incredible ship. 4 large swimming pools and about 5 hot tubs decorated the upper decks. Food of various cuisines available everywhere. The pizza near the pool was a good as home.

Notice the perfect weather. Everyday was like this. Bring your sun block.
Our favorite pool on the eighteen deck looking down from the 19th deck
Santorini is a Greek Island that just littered with splendid elevated views. The cliffs fall into a harbor that is so deep that the ships can't anchor. Instead they use their thrusters to hold a GPS position.
To the top of the island, we rode cable car to the top of the island where 98% of the buildings are. We did brave walking down the switchback to the dock. The primary hazard is the Donkey poop.
Many of the buildings are stucco painted in beautiful pastels. Santorini, beautiful for one day, time to move on to more ancient ruins.
