SANTORINI...
Great poets have sung its praises, a 4.000 year old history. And the eternal rock continues to stand, strong and majestic, rising proudly from the sea and guarding well the secrets of Atlantis...
The world famous island of Santorini is the southern most island of the Cycladic group in the Aegean Sea, and is located 63 nautical miles north of Crete.
Greetings from Santorini.

What an amazing place this is. Santorini is perched on the edge of an extinct Volcano.
It is my favourite place I have ever visited.
Santorini lies about 100 miles south east of Athens & is a Greek Island.
On Saturday, we all went ashore about 4pm and caught the Cable car up to the top of the mountain. Daddy really loved the cable car ride and smiled & waved all the way up…..yeh right. At the top, I met a couple of my pals from Club HAL. We had our picture taken & gossiped for a while then I had to leave, as my Daddy wanted to walk me around for hours!
Santorini is just cobbled streets and steeps – Thousands of steeps!! My little legs were so tired at the end of the day. My poor brother was just about done in at the end of the night and needed my Daddy to carry him around as he lost the use of his legs in the last hour!
We sat at an amazing restaurant perched on the mountain side. The views were great. We could see Daddy’s big ship & all the other ships in the bay. Daddy got lots of pictures, which he will be sending to you soon.
I had a pizza with my brother, Mummy had a lovely Pasta dish & Daddy had his Greek Salad (minus Tommy-art-o’s) and a beer. He was in heaven.
Finally we had to get back to the ship & to Club HAL. The sail away was great and mummy loved it.
We are having a great time onboard. I am writing this on Monday. Which we are calling “Connor in a bad mood day” as he has been grumpy all day & has been driving his mummy up the wall. He has just been taken out of the pool for not doing as he is told.
He is “Bad Boy” tonight & nothing he can do will redeem him. So he is happy as larry!!
Love to everyone.
