From the Seine to Firenze roller printed, the endpoint is the Holy Island of twilight-Greece (out)

Day 11

Malpensa airport is really far away, we had four hours in advance of departure or the right.

One-hour train to the airport, the airport and back taxes, eat breakfast, boarding passes and PSP fighting an hour later boarded a flight to Athens in Aegean aviation aircraft. The cheese and eggplant on the plane and the stewardess like say Allegro tongue twister speed clearly our last stop in style. Two and a half hour flight from Italy style go to more classic Aegean style is a perfect transition. We watched the before landing the surrounding scenery, there is no sign of fire, put the heart. Athens airport is true, empty almost no one in the airport booked to San Torini ticket and return air ticket in Athens, we get down to doing brand-new Metro looking for a hotel. Hotel Marina in the vicinity of the hotel Ominia Plaza is also good, but the surrounding environment is very untidy, Arabs, black, Gypsy, but fortunately only a one-night stay. From the airport to the hotel plus a one-hour time difference, we quickly go out until dark, can only look at the Castle at night.

In the years before there are a lot of people warned me, Athens really boring, but I'm skeptical about this.

After all, a castle, the Western civilization originated. It's here, I feel really quite boring, expensive, people die prices very lazy, defended the city dried to make money. Night of the castle was nothing to see, the city's tourist district very prosperous. We walked around, under a big tree to find a restaurant to a barbecue, squid and store wine, sit down or gatherings. But looking at the castle on the Hill was ablaze, the mountain side of blowing the small Eastern Mediterranean, while eating meat cool drinks don't have a flavor.

Day 12

Day of Athens at best regarded as a second-tier cities, although foretold, but we are not made on a whim.

We take the subway back to the Castle, from last night's long distances to find entrance, from the East edge of the city of mountain climbing. Before we didn't have time to do your homework, it didn't bring the history of Western civilization, so this kind of reading material on the rubble is only one kind of yuanmingyuan closeness, in addition to this no other emotions can express, but to hear all kinds of the city's top tourist guide about a castle in the history of the BC to be aware of this story, but were pleasantly surprised to find that one called NIKE's ganglou.

After lunch, I and my wife decided not to go to Athens and other parts of the Castle at the foot of the shopping streets around carefully, and then find a bar and a wonderful evening.

Wandering the silver please buy the wife's favour, six goddess as pillars of the temple, and here bought Santorini's White House small porcelain and blue Eastern Mediterranean style candlestick. The entire shopping street around the streets of the city, go to half lazy Italian hit, find a home in quiet Café sat down, the wife of a cup of coffee, I found Eidinger, Germany beer is pleased to point to spend two hours. As we do a lot of people, haven't to supper time, seven individuals around the small table with a glass of beer per person, a chat on a few hours, until the hungry. SAT, dark, and go back. The boat is 12 o'clock at night, we had only six hours spend can be leisurely. There are a lot of time to waste feels good. We are happy to sit in the West, East, listen to singing in the street after a half hour watching kids play football Greece and 20 minutes, still very cool Eastern Mediterranean wind, or the same as the city of black velvet night, me and my wife is sitting at the foot of the bench, was silent for a long time, finally, at the same time, holding out a word: "finally sent the last stop of the ..."

Ten at night, we went to the port at Marina, Mr. big mouth by a lorry nervously to supplies.

In the port and want to find instant noodle Cafe did not succeed, to two Coke consumption to the twelve. On board, wash, and sleep. Glad we have a Cabin that is actually soft sleeper, also with toilet. An evening with ship shake shaky, bed also pretty realistic.

Day 13

At five o'clock in the morning, wake up, I whistle opened the curtain to see the boat has landed.

This is not a Santorini, just a transit point. This class vessels are to spend 12 hours before the Holy Island, it is because each station docking. Anyway, I just grabbed the camera take dawn blue top White Church. Dawn sky faintly lit up, the sea of color is very interesting, not the history of the lamp or a reflection of the sky, but the vessel involved, sparkling is very nice.

The ship does not offer breakfast, can only rely on the Forum in the small supermarket-bought oranges and apples from starvation, the deck looked at those a backpackers ' hard back to flood the deck or tank, also lifted some sense of superiority.

A morning lying around, shoot a lot of corrugated, Aegean Sea very pure sea level is also very rich in fact, the sea surface patterns like A goods brand packages like agreeable pattern.

Noon, Marina on time into a volcanic embracing port.

We got out of the boat there are several quite a paunch of hit on former farmhouse boss accosted draw people in business. We booked "on the cliff" hotel, waited a while have the car took us directly. The entire Holy Island is divided into two parts, the city centre and specifically to watch the sunset village OIA. Our hotel on the cliff near the city centre, on the balcony is facing in the direction of the sunset. The hotel is next to a blue top church, is the bright sunshine. Everything and think exactly the same, wife meet, I drank it.

Wash it down to the supermarket to buy pasta and sausage, in-room kitchen made spaghetti with — the first time than boiled noodles complex in to increase the ketchup sauce, the secret is to put some butter and honey.

These are from the full package of Greece words to guess. Get round, we follow the great courage and small flowers of the Raiders to the street travel agencies reported a name in the second day of volcanic hot springs tour. Then go to the Oia to see the world's most beautiful sunset. Travel agency boss is a warm-hearted people, tell us the bus station, saveWe take 15 minutes to Termini. While sea breeze blowing, the Sun in the West is not so hot, the roadside station while sitting for a while, feeling like a child. Now suddenly came three Singapore, mouth daodao with English, a cocky's countenance, they appear completely destroyed the beiyewu "that summer tranquil tranquility in the sea". They waited for a little while already impatient, reached out to greet the taxi, train two foreigners were they could with on-resistance, to play with them. The bus to the station, I disdain to look at the just-opened the taxi door of Singapore, tosleep: "patience is more valuable." It seems to me that this is not a two-EU and 20 European distinction, but rather calm and impetuous. We got off to go straight to the village through the alley, the crowd flows, finally came to the island by five of the most Western.

Here is every visitor to St. Island visitors will come.

There is a holiday resort, is a cliff facing the Eastern Mediterranean of the White House, a cafe, all seats in the direction towards sunset, there is a viewing platform, the vast majority of people are viewing platform supported good camera, camera, waiting for that moment. All while watching this piece, wait wait, we are also among them. In order to find a better location, we also come down from the viewing platform, in people seldom track on sat waiting for sunset. Here's the famous sunset is a reason that the sun shines on the hill over the sea of color over time and change, while at the same time, not far away from the volcanic islands have also sometimes clear sometimes bleak. Cliffs is an ancient port, in the Sun to the sea from Golden to red, there is an old three-masted sailing ship passing through. There is no cloud in the sky, color of the sky and the sea, gradually from blue to yellow, from Golden to red, the Sun fall into the sea before dark. The moment Sun down, around lovers all hold together, romantic.

After the sun goes down, soon black, people also leave immediately, our ambling into village, waiting for the bus back to the hotel.

A hard day, but finally let the wife see Holy Island sunset, content.

Day 14

Am lazy to get up and flings found below the sea lively, size cruise to the port, and then look at the table, has nine, ten o'clock departure from the port and hot volcanic islands.

Listen to the travel agency that go from the hotel, after ten minutes, so comfortably meet sunshine breakfast, departure. We go away, only to find local people ten minutes foot journey real not, we had half the Berg. So even walked with running, step on the way the donkey dung in five minutes prior to sailing aboard the ship. Saint-one of the characteristics of the island is the donkey, because from the port to the village must climb cliffs, in the absence of the tramway era people can only rely on the donkey. Our boat is seen last night at the golden sea passing one of the antique sailing ship. Visitors of the Sun is high, they took out the camera, less than ten minutes from the old harbour of Saint Island to island of volcanic origin. The island of volcanic rocks from a darker, otherwise nothing. In fact, quite boring, go up, not a hang on wrote sight 1, that is the first crater crater, the second, third ... Until you climb to the top of the Hill, is the largest crater. Guided tours with stones in next to dig a pit crater, which is to run Squeak exhausts, allegedly gravel perennial maintain 90 degrees. Crater with block above the Plains, filled with tourists from all over the place of small stones, we also put on Tower a, maximum, and a souvenir photo. The other side of the crater is absolutely not of the sea, the black volcanic rocks, white and blue of the Aegean Sea regatta.

Climb the volcano is a hot spring tour, I didn't bring swimming trunks not happening, I saw the foreigner to undress, a blink of an eye in full into the waves, I eventually LUCF forbore with them, I'm glad, because foreigners were to swim in a circle back feel only one word "freezing".

No water is cold, the province has also leaning which, sunbathing, look at the bow of Greece girl dancing on the dance of Nice, the sailing sailor so up to six lyre, a joy. This is a harmonious society.

Lunch in a restaurant on the island, called Captain John, food is average, but places to eat in the sea, back with remaining bread crumbs feed sea greedy little fish.

A lunch was eaten to three points. This trip was really good, stay, eat, sea, feeding the fish, days. Wish to go to Sanya China also have such tours.

Return passing the Oia viewing audience of small ports and scattered in the Holy Island cliffs at the foot of the other small village, soon we sent to the port of departure.

Disembarkation, we think donkey smells, sitting on a cliff peak tram. On the way back to the hotel, we put the twilight waste time shopping in the East-West shopping buy olive oil shampoo, the street atmosphere although very commercial, but will not let nuisance, the most interesting are the small business owners see we will use Chinese, Japanese, and Korea Word with our set of magnetic, know that we are constantly told me after also said: "cheap, discount". But because he is too cheap, not in the shop to buy anything.

Supper we continue a delicious pasta, do a back-end to the balcony, side of the watch the sunset while enjoying.

Today's Sun to half fell to the dark clouds in the sky dark showed up, down, another day has passed.

Day 15

The last day of the journey.

We have arranged special projects, go to the black sand beach in the morning, the afternoon went to Oia's Cliff to find a cafe sit in the afternoon, dinner at noon.

From various travels, Black Beach are all very interesting place, get there only to find it boring, volcanic gravel is the legendary black sand, looks cute, you can put the socks off, stepped up feeling full is not so, because small stones in the foot pain is sharp.

I swallowed a complimentary foot massage walk 10 meters to the sea, with sea water to wash the feet, and then back to wash only danced and ran to the shore to rush to wear good shoes。 Some sideways next to the fisherman vessel, there are two Korea girl literary and self-satisfaction and imagined himself into a movie star from various angles to take photographs, expertly repeating various expression. In water of foreigners are not afraid of my foot hurts Hardy, brave naked body, black stone on running around. I and my wife was a breath of air, exclamation ratio not their hard soles or back to the village to find a comfortable place for corruption.

Sat coach soon back at the shop-find a Vista good restaurant, travel the most expensive since the meal.

Expensive, although expensive, imagine paradise on the final day of food and landscape value also. We eat seafood salad on the side, while products with chardonay, enjoy Eastern Mediterranean on volcanic islands, small sailing and shore blue top White Church, comfortable stay for three hours. Here to rest for three hours, we ride back to Oia cliff, this time we have enough time, the cliffs and down the White House at a time. Afternoon, the sun shining on the sea really is beauty, colour saturation enough for blue glittering light nail.

Everything is perfect, the afternoon time passed slowly.

At this point from the Sun there are more than an hour, I and my wife walking to the day before yesterday to watch the sunset in the Café terrace and sit down, only to find here 80% of the seats on the previous day had already been booked, were reserved for small plates, OK finally found a side of the seat, honey, cheese and beer, top Sun while looking at it a little bit. Soon, people began to gather up the left table is a pair of Japan men and women, hip hop and playing with his camera, and the right table is a Chinese spinsters, alone in a glass of red wine in a trance, 90 and 60, we caught in the middle. When the time comes to 4: 50, floating on a sea mist, from Sun to the horizon, a perfect gradient color. We should congratulate the day before yesterday, because today there will be sunset. Sure enough, the Sun fell into the mist, most people just climb the viewing platform, we've got the table to the Cafe door lining up people, we regret that only a little melancholy. Dark, we stroll back to the hotel, I have here.
