  • Capture 1
  • 17 Jul 2015

Bledel makes her way by mule to her grandparents.

Oia, Santorini looking east. Already a few details changed but the curly steps help. SJ

  • Capture 2
  • 'Now' required

More making of way through the alleys of Oia.

  • Capture 3
  • 17 Jul 2015

Now I'm not sure what's going on with the continuity as this is a reverse pov of 001.

Looking west from the same spot as 001n. Thirasia island, the only other inhabited island of six in the archipelago, is in the background. SJ

  • Capture 4
  • 17 Jul 2015

And here is the grandparents' house with the curved roof in Oia.

This is situated at the top of the steps which run from the harbour of Ammoudi/Amoudi. SJ

  • Capture 5
  • 18 Jul 2015

Bledel is provided with a warm and large welcome.

A good place to see the famous Oia sunsets but one may have to lean over the balcony. SJ

  • Capture 6
  • 18 Jul 2015

A shot of Oia's southside.

Sometimes it's hard to see the wood for the trees but the blue-topped church dome helps. SJ

  • Capture 7
  • 17 Jul 2015

Bledel sketches by the waterside at Amoudi harbour.

The jetty seems to have collapsed a little. SJ

  • Capture 8
  • 17 Jul 2015

Reverse pov of Bledel sketching.

Changes to the building on the right. SJ

  • Capture 9
  • 17 Jul 2015

After an unexpected dip into the Aegean, Rady rescues her.

The port of Amoudi with few changes. SJ

  • Capture 10
  • 'Now' required

This could be Fira/Thira, the capital of Santorini, as Bledel collects the magic pair of jeans.

  • Capture 11
  • 17 Jul 2015

Another shot of the grandparents' house taken from the Castle Oia area.

The house has changed colour. SJ

  • Capture 12
  • 17 Jul 2015

Back on the jetty of Amoudi.

A good shot of some of the sister isles of Santorini, Nea Kameni, Palaia Kameni, Aspronisi and the two cliffs on the right belong to Therasia. To the left is the cliff path seen in the sequel. SJ

  • Capture 13
  • 'Now' required

Bledel finds out that Rady is from the wrong family in a touch of Montague and Capulet syndrome. Possibly at the harbour.

  • Capture 14
  • 'Now' required

Unsure but continuity suggests it follows on from the previous shot

  • Capture 15
  • 17 Jul 2015

Overlooking grandparents' house.

Now with a very blue sea. SJ

  • Capture 16
  • 17 Jul 2015

The isle of Saint Nicholas below Oia.

Taken in early evening. The water is about 1000 feet deep in front of the church of Agios Nicolas. SJ

  • Capture 17
  • 18 Jul 2015

A good place for contemplation, though it's popular for tombstoning which is slightly noisier.

Taken from further away at sea. SJ

  • Capture 18
  • 17 Jul 2015

Bledel is facing Santorini and that's the south end on the left then Nea Kameni and Palaia (also Palea) Kameni.

Short of attempting a swim with a camera, here's a shot from the cliffs of Oia. Agios Nicolas was also seen in Santorini Blue. SJ

  • Capture 19
  • 17 Jul 2015

Rady teaches Bledel to ride a scooter.

Oia Main Square, also known as Nicolaou Nomikou Square, in front of the Greek Orthodox Church Panagia of Platsiani. In reality mopeds are excluded in summer time. SJ

  • Capture 20
  • 17 Jul 2015

Rady and Bledel above Amoudi.

One of two windmills in this area. SJ

  • Capture 21
  • 17 Jul 2015

Looking after the house and terrace work while the post arrives by mule.

Door firmly closed. SJ

  • Capture 22
  • 17 Jul 2015

Just outside the front door.

The top of the steps leading down to the harbour.

  • Capture 23
  • 17 Jul 2015

On the road down to Ormos Athinois the main harbour.

This is south of Fira/Thira. SJ

  • Capture 24
  • 17 Jul 2015

And round the corner she goes bringing the ferry port into view.

This is the ferry port for foot passengers. Not to be confused with Skala which handles the cruise ship passengers who have to be boated in. SJ

  • Capture 25
  • 17 Jul 2015

Bledel wishes to see off Rady before he departs for study.

Still the same. SJ

  • Capture 26
  • 17 Jul 2015

It's not so much a ticket hall just a sun-shelter.

Numbers have moved and little offices have appeared: as busy as ever. SJ

  • Capture 27
  • 17 Jul 2015

Bledel says her own goodbyes to return to the US, or rather British Columbia standing in for the US but that's another story.

Pretty deserted and tourist-free shot. SJ
