Greek Islands

Greek Islands - years ago early in the digital age we visited Greece with Elder Hostel (now known as Road Scholar) on a wonderful trip using public ferries to move from island to island where we stayed in small family run hotels. While we island hopped visiting archeological sites many days, what especially sticks in my mind and digital photographic library are the days and nights spent on Santorini. Fortunately we were there during a period when only a few small ocean liners dropped passengers off for the day. Between 6PM and 10AM it felt like the island was ours. Of course although there were hundreds if not thousands of other tourists on the island overnight, it wasn’t ten thousand dropped off by two or three large ships and in exploring the town it sometimes felt as though we were alone. Santorini especially is one of the most beautiful and intriguing, and perhaps most photogenic, places I have ever been and most of the photographs in this gallery were taken there.
