A walk at dawn!

Woke up at 6.30am today and push Andrea out of bed.... of course he wasn't happy about that but I wanted to go out early and see the Oia village still asleep! It was breathtaking! Took some picture (I'll load them once back home) and breath the fresh air of the early morning. Oia looks totally different when people is not around... old houses are more visible and the colourful doors (usually open) are all closed to show their special beauty.
I loved that walk... then we had breakfast and took our scooter again to reach Mesa Pigadia a beach at the southermost part of the island... The beach is all made with black round stones and there's this small restaurant (the only one) overlooking the sea and the small bay. We had lunch there...it is run by a family, granpa, dad, wife, and a couple of children... and some friends of the granpa. The food was great and the environment simply faboulous. Got our drive back home... on the windy scooter and had a shower... again we went out for food and had dinner in a fancy restaurant.... it has been a great day!
