This morning went for a picturesque walk along the famous Caldera of Santorini. Took a cable car to an old wooden boat and had a 20 minute ride to the volcano of Santorini. After a 30 minute hike we reached the active crater of King George.
After returning to the boat we went to a nice spot to swim in the Aegean Sea. I did my best back flip coming off the boat. From here we grabbed a quick lunch and returned to port but this time instead of taking the cable car up we each rode a donkey. I was pretty lucky as mine was mostly cooperative and the few times we stopped I'd let him catch a few quick breathes and once I gave him a kick and said "Oopa!" he took off.
After we reached the top Chris, Simone, Candice, Tabitha and I rented ATV's for the day (Candice and Tabitha shared). I originally tried to rent a scooter but apparently you need a motorcycle license for that so they'd only give me the ATV/Quad bike. We rode for an hour or two and got some great pictures of Santorini.
Tonight we had our farewell dinner. Afterwards we went out to a bar/club. Did some dancing on the bar and had my best night of the trip so far.
