of cobblestoned streets and blue skies (:


Visited the museum which housed some amazing artefacts from before christ.
Donkey splattered in multicolour paint.A bronze donkey on display. shoo cute! (:
Shop selling musical instruments. They've got some interesting miniatures of instruments (:
They also sell some pretty amazing looking chess sets.Bracelets and accessories sold in some of the shops.
Statues of all the Greek gods made out of Alabaster. Greek mythology is rather interesting I must say, after the shop owner told us some history behind each god. In the end, aunt bought this set and got it shipped home (:
Spot the donkeys!
Pictures with dates taken from Aunt's camera. Mostly, pics of ME! (: HAHA.

Santorini!
Random mirror in the middle of the street. Only pic of me and aunt together! (:

Catholic Cathedral against a backdrop of fluffy clouds and a blue sky :D
Walkway. Loving the details: arched and cobblestoned path.
Self taken picture! Not too bad for an SLR pic right? haha (:
Traditional Greek dishes and really good service.Interior of the restaurant. Loving the nautical theme! (:
Map of Santorini as the table cloth.
Greek coffee. Different from the normal coffee I drink but it's not too bad. There is a weird after taste though :/
White wine. They seem to love serving wine for free. Nice gesture, but too bad I don't drink (much).
Roast potatoes. Soft and yummy.
Grilled Calamari. Heavenly (:
Moussaka. A traditional Greek dish which is made with layers of meat and sauteed eggplant topped with white sauce and baked. It is delish (:
Baklava. A traditional sweet pastry made of layers of phyllo dough filled with chopped nuts and sweetened with honey. YUMMERS! (:
Some lemon slushie/liqueur thingy.
Ancient Greek desert the owner of the restaurant let us try for free. It's really good but I have no idea what it's called :(
Christmas lights outside a light shop on the streets of Santorini. I love how Christmas is just around the corner! (:
So pretty I love the baby reindeer. The head moves! :P
