On our way to the Crystal Endeavor we did a short 4 day cruise on the Silversea Moon to check out the new ship. It was very nice as is often the case some things I like better on Regent some things I like better on Silversea.

Stelios picked us up in Athens. He is a taxi driver/ guide, a fantastic person we met many years ago. I think quite a few of you have used Stelios over the years.

We were given tickets by the ship to a $229 per person special lunch ashore in Santorini. Only 5 guests and 2 Silversea staff. It was six courses with wine and one of those courses was lamb. I actually ate my plate and three other peoples plates. Lamb heaven. This a very fancy hotel with incredible views and very modern. All the "beautiful people were around the pool" Really enjoyed the experience

Santorini Brewing Company was the name of the company that brews the Crazy Donkey Beer. There quite a few wineries and breweries on the islands. I was quite surprised by the wines did not taste one I did not like.

Nafplion, Greece - a stunning port absolutely gorgeous little town that does not seem overly touristy. Normal shops every where not just tee shirt tourist shops.
