Walk along and just enjoy. The sun, the architecture, the colors, the colorful drift. To cool off, maybe a great frozen yoghurt and don't forget: sunscreen, possibly a hat / head covering and plenty of water to drink.

August 9, 2022,Greece-22.4: Santorini Fira Alter Hafen

The old port of Fira is well worth seeing. A cute old town with a beautiful view of the bay. There are 699 steps down to the sea. Many take the donkey here and so the stairs look pretty different. Shame on people and animals! Of course we walked up again. That was pretty tiring...
