Honeymoon on the Greek Islands

In and around Greece

After saying "I do" in Berkeley, California, we needed a sweet escape; Greece was the perfect place! We enjoyed fantastic weather, beautiful beaches, delicious food, and tantalizing, romantic views all around the Cycladic Islands.  From the cliffs of Santorini to the salty breezes of Paros and the verdant valleys of Naxos, we fell in love with Greece.  This trip helped us recharge, as well as gain an appreciation for feta, capers, wine, and the million shades of aqua and turquoise in the Aegean.  To top it off, the history and culture of Greece- from ancient monuments, churches, and statues- surrounded us. Sometimes we felt like we, too, were part of a Homer-masterpiece.
