Day 7 :
Good morning! And this is our breakfast for today!
Today we decided to all dress up in white to match with the colour of Santorini!
Doggy greeting us outside our main door.
We are having a sunset ship tour which starts at 1.30pm so we went nearby to have bunch. Thalami is just next to our apartment. I was here for dinner the last time when I came to Santorini too.
Address : Oia 847 02, Greece
Operating Hours : 12pm to 12am ( Monday - Sunday )

The view in the morning at this restaurant is nicer then night view when I was here last time!
Coffee first as usual! Wish coffee with such view is a everyday thing!
Lunch is here!
If I didn't remember wrongly, this is their traditional tomato cake and it's so good!
I had this last time and I have to say it's better now.
Food here was good too!
Ok... I got to work part time to earn some travel allowance... Haha! Just joking! Anyway I'm just helping some Chinese tourist to do some translation. Why are we so helpful? Because being helpful doesn't cost us any money and they politely ask for help and also we don't wanna waste the fact that we are all bilingual ( I did the same thing in Paris before too... haha! )!
Meeting time not up yet so we came back to our apartment to rest a bit and of course we need to take more pictures right?
Off we go! We booked the tour through Dennis and it cost 100euro per person for a max 20 pax tour.
We checked other place for the price and they are all the same so we decided to go ahead with Dennis's recommendation because at least if anything happen, we can still ask Dennis for help.
Our pick up point is at Hungry Donkey again and they drove else where to pick up some other guest as well and together to a private jetty.
That's our boat! Excited!
Before the boat starts to move, they will give some briefing on where we going and all.
The sun is just nice to warm us up in this cold weather.
Enjoy the sun and sea breeze...
Sun tanning?
Frist stop, the red beach.
And it's photo time!
Welfie time!
We are back to the Black Beach! Look different from the Black beach we went yesterday because this is other side of the beach.
Oh ya did I mention dinner and unlimited drinks is included?
The waves was calm at first but now it become very bumpy and the staff advice us to move to the back area.
The crew member is starts to prepare our BBQ dinner!
Next, we are at the foot of the live Volcano!
Two volcano to be exact.
Time to have a dip into the water! Bur it's getting too cold so only Qian Yi, Pauline and other youngster from other group dare to jump into the sea! ( Ya I'm old... )
The water is said to be warm BUT the crew say don't expect to be really warm because the weather is really cold out there. Haha! That's the reason why the rest of us decided not to jump in!
While they are swimming, let's peep what are they cooking!
Done with swimming and they will help to "wash" you before you step back to the boat.
Dinner time! But it's only 4pm+! Too early for dinner so I decided to skip. The rest was praising that the food is yummy though.
Dinner with this view!
Look at these seagull!
So many seagull right in front of us! But the reason why they are here is because the crew throw food waste into the sea.
We can use bread to attract them but I just think the oily food waste is too harmful to the sea creature!
The seagulls doesn't like our plain bread anyway so they didn't fly to us.
If I have to say one thing that I don't like about this boat trip, I guess it will be this, throwing food waste into the sea! It's polluting the beautiful sea...
Anyway, they are really beautiful!
Now we are sailing towards the sun to watch the sun sets!
Look how beautiful is the view! Watching sunset in the middle of the sea with my besties!
The egg yolk is falling into the sea!
The orange sky look so nice once the sun set..
Sun sets and back to shore now!
So beautiful isn't it?
Taking the same car back to Oia.
Back to Oia and we saw donkeys off work now.
My friend is again waiting for us outside our apartment.
Back home and mask time!
Did some star glazing and time to sleep!
Good night!
Day 8 :

Their menu...
Very empty restaurant. ( only us... )
Food is not as fantastic as compare to Thalami we had yesterday.
Pasta and the chicken dish was ok...
We really love the tomato cake we had yesterday so we order this tomato ball but the one at Thalami is better.
Complimentary dessert from the restaurant.
After breakfast, it's Gelato time!

I didn't manage to have the Greek yogurt that I much wanted from Fira Island so this will do the same I guess? Peijun and I had yogurt while the rest had Gelato.
Many sauce, fruits, gummy and chocolate to add on to the yogurt!
I only eat yogurt with fruits and fruity sauce. Haha!
But lucky it really taste almost the same as Lou Yo! Love it!

Since we are at Santorini, how can we not take photo with the world famous blue dome right?
One last view of the beautiful island.
Doggy walking back home with us.
Back home to take our luggage and last bid good bye to "our" cats!
Reached the Santorini airport.
We had a small hiccups here. Ryan Air is charging us for not printing our own boarding pass! We didn't read there is this term on their website unlike Volotea Airline which they clearly stated that on their website. Ended up we got charge for 341euro for 5 tickets which actually cost even more then our flight tickets! So if you are taking any of the low cost airline, read carefully for their term and condition, or even better, just online check in no matter they state on their websites or not. They accept boarding pass from your mobile phone as well so need not to print out if you couldn't find a printer.
Finally receive the piece of expensive paper that they are going to tear away!
Anyway, not yet time for our flight so went to their café to have a cup of coffee first. Look at this not fully filled up coffee, it cost me 4.5o euro though...
Off we go!
Bye Santorini!
Bye Santorini!
