- From Piraeus to SantoriniAfter looking for our hotel in Piraeus (one of Athen's ports) for an hour late last night, we finally managed to squeeze in a few hours of sleep before heading this morning, at 5:30 am, to our Blue Star Ferry.

- Santorini, Day 30 At the start of the day I wasn’t sure what the weather was going to bring – the sky wasn’t blue, with a layer of high cloud, and it was fairly breezy but still warm. Around midday the wind Posted by judesbucketlist in Jude's Bucket List Trip | Jun 8, 2011
