tWas 7 years ago that we visited Santorini and stopped in the little place of Perissa, that at the time was quaint and cheap. Cut forward to present day and Perissa is a lot like any British seaside town offering “Full Inglis Brakefast” at £12 each. Ouch

Yup things sure have changed here, you can find the occasional gem, but be prepared to pay regardless, even in the Locals places. After the influx of the Americans, Greece has realised there is a killing to be made.

We hired a Peugeot 107 today (the Mrs decided a Quad bike was a little too risky), they even supply automatics to make sure our cousins can drive. Took a drive to Perissa and Kamari where there is an acient city of Thira which is up about 600 feet of about 40 switch backs on cobbled road.

The picture is from Thira looking down to Perissa (we walked up that 7 years ago, oh my). If you look at the map below you can see the twisty turny road from Kamari up the hill.

So now a chill then an amble back to Oia for a nice evening meal. Oh we did stop at Dimitris Tavern in Vlychada and can definitely recommend you avoid at all costs, yuck!

Two more days then back to cold wet England.

See you all soon.
