Dream on 2.0

Choosing to have a low key day in Dream 2.0 today. Temp really ramping up, plus 3 big ocean liners have just pulled into town. Thira the town will be quirky as usual but very busy today. Would love to have done a cruise/ swim but don’t want to get scorched out on the water. Temp expected to hit 30. Athens expected to be 40 when we get there on Monday. A bit of a heat wave pushing through Europe at present. Visited an interesting shop yesterday. Some very creative messages imprinted on tees and shoes. Ah technology. Pics below. No sign of the donkeys trudging up the cliffs. It’s all cable car stuff now. A tick for animal welfare. Hopefully any remaining cliff donkeys are being looked after in shelters. While waiting for our return shuttle I was intrigued to hear the tourists from the cruise liners focussed on the cable car activity. This is clearly a tourist feature of Santorini that is being promoted by the cruise liners at the moment. Santorini is a great spot full of history, panoramic views and cultural reminders. BTW Santorini with its layered cliffs down to the water must be a veritable treasure trove for archaeologists and geologists.

  1. More great pics from the photo-journalist of the family. Make the most of the last few days of Euro70. R’s Sky.

    • the end is nigh. Great trip. And great memories preserved thru the pics and a little narrative. Athens early tomorrow for a couple of days then Wed on the big iron bird. Have noticed a bit AFL whining from afar from fuckwits like Clarkson and Lyons. Get em out.
