Oia

Sat (18 Aug 07) - We took a taxi from Fira to Oia, another nearby town.

Famous blue domed church in Oia

Stop for cold refreshments

Oia was ruined by an earthquake in the 50s during the volcanic eruptions and parts of it were still being rebuilt.


Tried a cactus fruit which tasted like a golden kiwi

Sunset at Oia is very famous - see the big turn out at the fortress to watch the sunset.

View of the sunset from Kastro restaurant


The salads at Kastro were really good
