So... yesterday we caught the bus from Oia to Fira and walked the 8 miles back to Oia along the edge of the Caldera. It was a great walk with stunning views. Here is the day in lots of pictures.
The Day started bright.
We could see some of the other neighbouring islands...
We headed down the eastern side of the Island on the bus...
..To Fira...
Cruise Ships at anchor
The curved cliffs of Santorini are the edge of an ancient volcano...
I wondered if this island was the volcanic plug and perhaps it might one day erupt again.
Skaros Rock
Skaros Rock the site of an old castle and ancient settlement
Amongst the ruins
An inhabitant of Skaros Rock...
Church of Panagia Theoskepasti...
Oh No! Time to head back up.
The way ahead, Oia in the distance...
Looking back to Skaros Rock
On our first day I thought this was snow on the hills...Doh!
Oia ahead
This nutter ran up and down the hill four times while we were walking down
