Road Trippin'

The whole of Saturday was spent laying around and chilling so Sunday morning was an early-ish start. We walked to Fira to have breakfast with a view of the Caldera and volcano. We found a nice place with a nice waiter who offered us a custom breakfast. Lekker bacon, eiers, mushrooms en brood and our first coffee for the trip. After breakfast we went on a jewelry shopping spree and decided to go to Oia for the afternoon.



On the way to the bus station we decided to rent a car for the day. We travel in style ☺


We rented a black convertible beetle for 24 hours. Driving on the other side of the road and with a left hand steer was a challenge at first but we got the hang of it quite quickly and drove to Oia with the music blaring! It was so much fun!

We walked around in Oia taking in the most magnificent views you have ever seen and took millions of pictures. We even saw two Korean brides. Weird.





After that we drove to the other side of the island to Parissa beach for a beer. Then we drove up and down the beach road and went back to Fira for another trip at the grocery store.

At home we had dinner on the patio (French loaf, ham and happy cow cheeses).
