Lovers in Greece

After spending a few days wandering about Mykonos we boarded a ferry and made our way over to Santorini. Santorini definitely beat out Mykonos for having the best views and sunsets. Santorini was pretty much a lover's island, everywhere you looked it was couple's holding hands, kissing and kissing some more, and sometimes doing things that was much more than I had hoped to see. On a better note, it was very beautiful and most days all I wanted to do was stare at my surroundings. Our first day on the island Jordan and I rented an ATV and cruised all around. Jordan was clearly the driver, she is a bit more bad ass than me. I just stuck to the back and hoped that we were headed in the right direction. Riding on the back of that 4-wheeler, with perfectly warm weather, and nothing but mountains and beaches surrounding me was one of the best feelings in the world, literally just epic. Our first stop of the day was a true Greek breakfast. I enjoyed a fresh squeezed glass of orange juice, Greek yogurt with honey, and a traditional Greek omelet. It was to die for. Then we hit up a their famous beaches, one black beach and one red beach. To end this surreal day we rode up to Oia to watch the sunset. Although it was very crowded, it was still amazing to watch! Jordan and I definitely enjoyed our romantic getaway (as friends) on this awesome island.
