1-4th October, Santorini Island , Greece !

Finally I arrive to my dream place! This is a last minute trip due to one of my friend is leaving UK for good. So she wanna fulfill her dream to go santorini b4 she left.

Airticket is killing me, cost me £250 for a return !!

But no regret going it cos it is just soooooo beautiful!!!

There are 8 of us, Sim, Evone, Vans, Alice, Gwendolin, Brian and Kong Yee in this trip!

Where Alice, Gwendolin, Brian and Kong Yee repeated my nightmare by running into the aircraft at 10 minutes b4 departure time! Seriously I tot they are not going to make it that time!

The flight is 3 hrs where we all slept like a log as it was a 725am flight! Not that I realize, we already touch down to the Santorini Thira airport! Looking out from the window, saw the crystal blue sea and sky! We are so glad that we were blessed by good weather during our 4 days stay!

Since we arrive in the afternoon, we just stroll around the thira town, taking picture and eating Greece kebab!

One silly thing that we done is to have the donkey ride down the hill to the old port! Gosh! So scary as I afraid the donkey might just lost control and throw me into the cliff!!! Not a good experience tho but glad we done it!

At night, we had a lavish seafood dinner overlooking the sea with the gentle breeze (not so gentle after eating half way…felt so cold with the wind)

The next morning, we are joining the boat cruise for island hopping visiting the volcano and also the hot spring.

I dare not go to the hot spring as we will have to swim across the open sea to reach the hot spring….since my swimming skill is so limited, I better stay at the boat. Finally 5 brave men and women swim across proudly!!

Then we finish our boat trip at Oia town and waiting for the famous sunset view (seriously, we think the sunset view in our apartment is much better and not crowded, whereas at Oia, it is tooo crowded and commercial liao.

After the sunset, we have a unforgettable bus ride back to thira with more than 100 ppl cramp into 1 bus!!!!!

On the 3^rd day, we rent 2 cars and drive around the island! Santorini is a small island and 1 day drive is sufficient to explore the beauty of the island liao!!! Had fun taking pictures playing with water.

As the third was was the mid autumn festival, we brought mooncake along and have a mooncake night with delicious home cook seafood spaghetti and fried squids!

Waking up in the 4^th day, Vans and evone gonna leave to Mykonos in the morning, me and sim heading back to London after the lunch and the rest of the 4 person heading to Athen for their trip!

What a wonderful trip and we came back with thousandssss of photos and vedio clips!!! Sooo funny!
