This is the mental image that's been keeping me going. It's Santorini. The island I should have been born on, but my Mom chose New Orleans instead. Wah-wah! I won't fault her because my city is pretty amazing too. It's just Greece... Santorini in particular is amazing on a whole different level. I took this picture at around 7pm at sunset. It's so much better in my mind, but this definitely helps me remember. The Black Sand Beach, the Red Sand Beach, Perissa, Kamari and Fiera. It's the best, over-priced place you'll ever go. I get lost here. I couldn't think of anything else but what I was doing *that moment. How many places have that effect on you? The food was ALL local from the island and unlike anything I've tasted. The air smelled like fresh salt water taffy and you felt as if you were living in the best postcard you've ever seen. The island itself is a maze of adventure.
Luckily, I get to go here again VERY SOON. I'm already craving this balsamic fig jam with fresh bread for breakfast with this rose infused orange juice that literally tasted like the Gods made it themselves. Everything in Santorini tastes brighter, richer and you just feel more alive. Why more people don't go here more is beyond me! It's heaven, with clouds and all!!! In fact, they even have a little bakery with smurfs on it just because smurfs are blue and white! If I get more technologically savvy between now and then, I'll have to blog or post pics when I get on the island!
Reality check now: I'm sick. My throat aches. I need to rest and get well for my adventure. First, a snuggle with my pillow and icky meds, ughhh meds!
