SANTORINI, GREECE~May 16, 2007

WOW!!! That is really all I can say about this place! This was our favorite stop of the entire trip. Have you seen the movie, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants? Well if you haven't this is where part of it was filmed!! This entire town is up on a cliff and it is surrounded by beautiful water! There were 4 cruise ships that were here that day. We had to take a smaller boat from the cruise ship to the shore. The views from up top were absolutely breathtaking.
There were three ways that you could get to the town once on shore. Either by walking, riding a donkey, or taking the cable car. We decided on taking the cable car, even though it would have been great to say that I rode a donkey!
This man was great!! He was trying to sell peanuts and all of the tourists were just taking pictures and he was getting very upset!
The best part was that I was sharing this all with my parents!! It wouldn't have been the same without them!
We took this picture while we were riding the 4 wheeler!!
We rented 4 wheelers to tour the island which was the funnest thing we could have ever done!! We went to the beach and swam for a bit and then just kept on riding around the island. You would think we got around pretty fast but these 4 wheelers were only 50's. Put, put, put..........
My hottie!!! (hey boy!!)
I was wearing Joel's shirt so that I wouldn't get fried!! Living in Provo and working inside 40 hours a week really kills the whole tan thing.

This was an amazing church that we saw. I love how Santorini is all about the blue roofs!

Totally cute house!!

Hey Monica,
That movie? Is that where Joel decided that "Some days a guy's just got to wear stretchy pants!"

Joel has always thought that guys were supposed to wear stretchy pants.
