I came to Kamari this morning for something to do and one of those things was to visit the old ruins of Thera. It’s only a 3.5 km walk but it’s all up hill via a zig zag road that winds its way up the very steep mountain. Even if it were a 100% fit this would be quite the challenge and as my ankle is a bit niggly this morning I ain’t going to even try.

I wasn’t sure just how steep it was but as I look at it I know that I ain’t got what it takes.

So I’ll just have to kill an hour or so until the bus arrives to take me back to Fira.

On more than one occasion over the passed weeks I find myself fighting Google maps and this has been really obvious here on Santorini, my inner compass is still well and truly embedded in the southern hemisphere. It’s just really bazaar the feeling you get when you look at the map and it just feels wrong. I look at the sea, I look at the map and then I decide which way to go and then I check the map and sure enough I’m 180° oot….. Go figure!!
