Santorini, Greece

Where Nothing Bothers You

You are in for a treat. Charming took eight hundred and eighty photos in Greece with his digital SLR which he hasn't been able to use on this trip up until this point. As I write this he is editing a few to fit here on the blog.There isn't much to say about Santorini except that it was everything it should be. Stunningly beautiful, refreshing, and relaxing. We ate and slept a lot. We swam in the crystal clear azure waters. I think the word "azure" was invented to describe the waters around Santorini. We drank lots of local white wine. I took one of the best naps of my life. I could write a lot about that, but you'd get too jealous and stop reading this blog.

We went for a long catamaran ride around the island.

Nothing bothers you on Santorini. We didn't worry that some claim Santorini is the fabled Atlantis that sank into the sea. We didn't worry that it's the "most active volcanic center in the South Aegean Volcanic Arc."

Santorini was so exquisite that it inspired me to set my next screenplay there. I'm working on a story called Santorini Mermaid right now. I feel like I've come full circle, because my first script was calledMermaids in Venice.  Five years and nine scripts later, I'm writing Santorini Mermaid. Maybe this script will make Hollywood realize THE WORLD NEEDS ANOTHER MERMAID MOVIE! Splash was too long ago. (Are you reading, studio executive?  Your hair looks nice today.)

It's time for some photo decadence. Just don't get too jealous and stop reading this blog.
