There and back again...

Friday we woke up in Santorini again - after breakfast by the pool Allie and I decided to walk the trail in Fira down to the shore.  So - roughly 1200 vertical feet of switchbacks down - with 150 mules along the way - and then a cable car ride back up. 

Friday evening we flew back to Milan.  Santorini has a small airport and were not prepared for 6 jets to go out in 90 minutes.  Eventually we got out and to Milan. 

Yesterday was Milan to NYC to KC - 24 hours awake overall - minor flight delays for weather in the USA - but we are now back in KC. 

From a planning perspective it was all successful.  We made every flight, train, car, tour and hotel.  Everything worked pretty much as expected without any major bumps.   

Greek and Italian people have been warm and generous hosts.  Allie has been a fun and relaxed traveling companion.  Though our trip is coming to a close, the celebration of her life goes on in my heart forever. 

And as promised earlier - there were dogs everywhere.  In restaurants, on boats, trains, planes, and at every tourist attraction...
