Honeymoon: Athens

After a quick plane right back to Athens, we headed for the Plaka one last time for some souvenirs. Since we were pretty wiped from all the traveling we'd been doing, we decided to just hangout at the hotel pool and watch the Acropolis from afar.

Honeymoon: Mykonos

Mykonos was our last island to visit. It's an island known for it's nightlife and beaches. Although we didn't stay up to witness it, we were told that everyone starts going out at 3am for the night and stay out to 8am. This baffles me. We loved the town of Mykonos with it's really cute shops and small tavernas. Everywhere you turned there was another cute alley to turn down.

Honeymoon: Santorini Part3

On our final day in Santorini we went on a sailing tour called Thalassa. With the tour, we were able to hike up the volcano, swim in some (not so hot) hot springs, eat some Greek mezze and learn a little bit of Greek dancing. It was the perfect way to end our stay in Santorini.

Honeymoon: Santorini Part 2

Watching the sunsets from our balcony was one of my favorite parts of the trip. This photo was actually taken on the day of my mom's birthday. I was sad that I couldn't celebrate with her. But Mom, you see that extra glass of wine? Yea, that one was for you!

Honeymoon: Santorini

Out of all the islands we visited, Santorini was my favorite. The views, the colors - they were just amazing. I would go back to Santorini in a heartbeat. The people were so nice and the food was so fresh. We ended up booking our hotel through Mr. and Mrs. Smith and it was the perfect place to stay. I highly recommend staying there if you are heading Santorini.

Honeymoon: Crete

Next up, Crete! After taking a quick flight from Athens, we picked up our little rental car and headed towards our hotel. We really had no idea what to expect when it came to any of the places we picked but when we arrived at the hotel and were greeted with glasses of champagne, we knew we picked the perfect spot.

Honeymoon: Athens

Ready to hear about our honeymoon? For the rest of the week I plan on sharing our photos from each of the places we visited. I hope you enjoy!

We left for our honeymoon the Monday after our wedding. By then we both felt completely exhausted and all we wanted to do was sleep. Luckily all our flights were on time and we were somehow upgraded to first class on both of our flights to Athens. The honeymoon was off to a great start.
