That is our ship out there in the harbor. The port on Milos is not equipped to dock cruise ships, so we rode a tender boat like the one in the foreground to the island and then back out to the ship.
Of course I had to include another cat photo.
The next stop on our Aegean Sea cruise was the Greek Island of Milos. This was probably my favorite island (except for Santorini) because instead of spending our time in the port which was crowded with tourists, we decided to take a taxi up the mountain to the small village of Plaka. As you can see from my last six photos, there were no crowds up there. We enjoyed wandering around and visiting the many cute little local shops and the taxi ride was also very scenic.

You were smart to take that taxi. You found a perfect spot to enjoy the beauty of Greece.
The colors of the wood and buildings are so beautiful! It looks like most people take their shoes off when they enter? And I love those big paving stones on the street.
Such a beautiful place!
Looks like you are having a lovely time on this trip.
Hello,
I love the white and blue colors, the buildings are so pretty. Great shot of your cruise ship! Wishing you a happy day!
What a beautiful place to stop and explore.
Beautiful buildings and surroundings
Plaka is my favorite so far, of all the places you have shown us. the no people/crowds is my thing, plus I LOVE< LOVE the houses here. they are amazing. I like the stairs and the way they have shoes drying and shoes on shelving. love the colors, all of them
Everything is so clean and tidy!
I like the colors on the doors.
...what a gorgeous place, it looks like they just painted everything in preparation for your arrival. It's interesting that the sign is almost as big as the rock. Thanks Lois for sharing this colorful post, I hope that you are enjoying your week.
Glad you discovered that beautiful sunlit village and took these wonderful photos to share
Oh, I hope there was more than one little boat to get you all on land!
I really, really do love all the blue and turquoise colors!
And the cat :-)
Wise decision to escape the (darn ;-)...) tourists, beautiful pictures!
Wow, what a sweet memories!
Um sitio maravilhoso e de grande beleza.
Um abraço e continuação de uma boa semana.
