Today is going to be a hot one (nearly 95 degrees!), but we'll do our best to stay cool as the Seabourn Odyssey anchors at Santorini, Greece.We'll start our day by taking the cable car to Fira. I'm really dreading seeing those poor donkeys making the trek up all those stairs. I know many tourists love the novelty of the donkey trek up to town, but it can't be easy to be a pack mule. Maybe I'll sneak the donkeys some apples and carrots.
Once we reach Fira, we'll probably head directly to Oia on the other side of the island. We're touring on our own, although I found some enticing private tours from MySantorini.com and Emver Santorini Tour Guide Service.
We'll post more upon our return to the ship later today. Don't miss our Seabourn Odyssey blog posts, Twitter tweets, YouTube videos, and LuxuryCruiseBible.com articles.

I am sure you will read this only after your return, but there is a wonderful restaurant in Oia called Pelikanos. If you sit on the roof terrace you have "the" view of Santorini. And, believe it or not, it has the best pizza (Greek cheese).
And the donkey ride is fun...on the way up. Down is scary, really scary. Remember that, for better or worse, if there are no riders the donkeys won't be needed (and its not like they are going to set them out in beautiful pastures).
