Some photos from SantoriniDue to a very tight schedule here in Greece, we have taken tons of photos, copious notes, and gathered up literature from as many places as we can, but have really not had the chance to write anything. In the coming weeks, and possibly even months, we will try and write about as much of this trip as we can. It has been a real eye opener with regards to the food and wine of Santorini. And while our eyes were open, here are some of the things we have seen. I wish I could say that these photos captured how beautiful and spectacular it is here, but they don’t even come close. Even so, I hope that you enjoy them. Click on the smaller images to see them full size, especially the spectacular and legendary sunset. Yiamas!

At the tasting we met a delightful couple, Don and Judy Phelps, owners of “Hard Row to Hoe” Vineyards. They poured a refreshing Sangiovese Dry Rosé. And Judy told me the story behind the name. Seems that back in the late 1930s, there was a brothel located at Point Lovely.

Having just lifted off from my connecting flight out of Denver that is returning me back to Houston from Seattle, I began to contemplate whether there were many things more needlessly gut-wrenching than a plane banking into a turn, while simultaneously encountering turbulence and dropping a bit. Then I recalled that part of the reason [...]
