As I sat at an outdoor café overlooking one of the most
famous sunsets in the world, I felt a moment of bliss. I could see the sun sinking
into the ocean. The light shades of blue and orange in the sky evoked serenity
and calmness; I had suddenly forgotten everything else that was on my mind.
During this surreal experience, the scent of the Mediterranean ocean breeze
consumed me and the voices of young couples walking through the narrow streets reminded
me of old Hollywood romance films. Every so often, I remember quenching my
thirst with a sip of an iced Greek coffee and ultimately associating this taste
with the summer of 2011. As the sea was continuously hitting the bottom of the
mountain and the sunset was coming to an end I took a minute to appreciate the
world around me.
Experiencing the natural beauty of the island was incredible
and on the evening of July 23rd when the sun was setting, my senses allowed
me to paint my perfect picture of peace.

Wow, well said! I myself can relate to this experience from the days I spent in Santorini during the summer of 2009. Watching the sunset truly does allow you to experience pure bliss and calm. Every other thought disappears from your mind as the colors take over your senses.
