Light, Rain in London, why we travel

So much to discuss for this long vacation that is just getting started. Even though it rained the whole time I was in London, I could have just stayed there and been happy. There is such an energy in that city. I talked to other travelers, had my dinner at Balans, and saw Priscilla before scurrying back to Paddington so I could sleep a bit before traveling on to Greece.

I must admit I did not bring my camera with me. There must be something psychological about it and this trip being my own.

But the moment I touched down after another long day of travel in Santorini, I remembered why I chose this as my birthday trip. The light and life is different hear. I am, staying at a beautiful place with 360 degree views of the water around us and the caldara that forms this beautiful Island.

Sunset last night was breathtaking. As was dinner. And that started with my favorite: Tazhiki sauce......the second favorite part of Greece behind the sun and sunsets.....

Today is quiet. I am relaxing. I have swum in the pool, eaten a nice lunch and read on my Kindle. Relaxation is starting to set in finally. As usual, it takes a few days before I feel fine with no plans and no agenda.

But, Come to Greece at some point in your lives. It is magical.....even on the third trip here.
