Me and a good friend who is now living in Tokyo spoke about this most beautiful place in Greece way back when we were still undergraduates. It was going to be a honeymoon place - a place of dreams where the rising sun basked against the clay walls perched on the hills in welcoming you the tide of morning. 
He is the only one I personally knew who managed to live that dream of being there - though not on a honeymoon :) This dream place came to mind as I was reading the story of the lost city of Atlantis - a place that has intrigued me even as a young boy till now.
Santorini - great poets have sung its praises, a 4.000 year old history. And the eternal rock continues to stand, strong and majestic, rising proudly from the sea and guarding well the secrets of Atlantis...
