Ano Mera & Chora, Mykonos

The van rumbled through the streets of Mykonos, dipping between the landscape as we moved to and from the coast.

Chora, Mykonos

The island of Mykonos.

My God does this place take your breath away.

Kusadasi & Ephesus

The next morning we more or less rose with the sun. I zombie-walked to breakfast with my sister and drowned myself in coffee until I perked up. We were ushered along quickly and disembarked in Kusadasi, Turkey promptly at 9AM.

Fira, Santorini & Donkey Lovin'

We left off with us ferrying over to the capital of Santorini, Fira. This was the Greece I had been expecting all along.

Santorini Sunshine, Akrotiri & Oia

Bright and early we rolled out of bed and devoured breakfast. Our day would be a full day tour exploring our first stop: the island of Santorini.

Athens Explorations, Day 2

The next morning was slow and groggy. After a good bit of poking and prodding, as well as the promise of good food, I rolled out of bed and trudged to up the stairs with the rest of my family.

All weariness vanished the second I stumbled into the dining room and caught sight of the view.
