SANTORINI, GREECE: my first visit, cable car, red beach, gyros, donkey trail, most gorgeous views!

Editorial Summary

The creator documents a full day of exploration in Santorini, Greece, beginning with an early morning tender ride from their cruise ship. After taking a cable car to the top of the island, the group experiences the spectacular views before heading toward Red Beach. Due to rough seas preventing a boat trip, the creator hikes to the beach instead. The day includes various culinary experiences, such as eating a chicken pita gyro and searching for highly recommended baklava at a local bakery. While some members of the group return to the ship early, the creator and a companion continue exploring shops and enjoying smoothies. The excursion concludes with a strenuous walk down the cliffs to avoid long cable car lines, which the creator notes resulted in walking 16,000 steps. Despite the physical exhaustion and minor mishaps like lost items, the creator concludes that the day was a ten out of ten experience and expresses gratitude for the opportunity to visit the island.
