Santorinis volcano


It´s said that perhaps the myth of Atlantis comes from Santorini. In excavations of the islands old settlements indicate that there may have been twin waterpipes, one for hot and for cold water, as far back as over 1500 years b.c!

However, the civilization that prospered on this beautiful Island was wiped out completly by the eruption of the still active volcano about 3500 years ago. Of course we had to visit the Island and it was´nt dissapointing. Large, with several craters and with a distinct smell of sulphur in our noses we could´nt stop gazing at all the views that we were being given. Very, very nice! =)
