Santorini is essentially what remains after an enormous volcanic eruption that destroyed the earliest settlements on a formerly single island, and created the current geological caldera. A giant central, rectangular lagoon, which measures about 12 by 7 km (7.5 by 4.3 mi), is surrounded by 300 m (980 ft) high, steep cliffs on three sides. The main island slopes downward to the Aegean Sea. (From Wikipedia)

The white buildings look so crisp and clean. Looks like a nice, quiet place. Those steps would take a while to climb!

When we vacationed in Athens we wanted to go to Santorini so badly, but were prevented by a storm. Instead we went to the small island closest to Athens. Beautiful pics!
