On our last full day on Naxos, we decided to take another long scooter ride. This time, we headed for Aparanthos, which our guidebook pronounced the most charming town on the island (or something like that). We got sidetracked on the way there when we saw signs pointing to the Temple of Demeter. It was quite a bit off our intended route, but well worth it. It was unbelievably hot that day, although a bit cooler when riding because of the breeze. Back on the road, we rode through the valley town of Filoti and then up into the hills to Aparanthos.

At the highest points, we had views of valleys and hills on one side and of the Aegean on the other side. It was quite a ride! We had lunch in Aparanthos and walked around a bit, then rode back to our hotel. (On the way back we tried to find the Cave of Zeus, following signs off the main road, but to no avail. Maybe it was closed?) In the evening we rode to Chora for one last visit.

Welcome!
We got married at sunset on September 5, 2009, in Santorini, Greece. We set up this website to give our family and friends the opportunity to follow along with the preparations and our two-week trip to the Greek islands. Enjoy!
