It is certainly a hot one again today. Where is Hades exactly? Maybe it is on
(or under) Santorini. The temperatures are predicted to be around 35 and later the
This volcano was a bit anticlimactic as it was hardly active at all; there were a few steam spots, but hardly anything dramatic. However it is extremely HOT. It is extremely hot and extremely humid. After the volcano is a stop at some hot springs. I can’t actually say how hot these are, as we opt for staying on the boat for a beer. I’m guessing they are similar to the temps of our natural hot springs.
The tour ends at a winery where we sample some Greek wines and try some olives and cheese. The olives are terrific!
We decide to have lunch in town and share a gyro which is doner meat (different from ours…it seems like actual meat that has been shaved), a couple of pitas, tomato slices and tzatziki sauce. The tzatizki sauce it divine! I happen to love tzatizki and this is probably the best I have ever had; it is thick and garlicky and fantastic.
Because Santorini is way at the top of the island to get from the bottom to the top is either a long hike made treacherous by donkey droppings along the way, riding the actual donkey down or taking a cable car. We opt for the 2 minute cable car ride.
