On Amorgos, we spent five nights, which was about perfect. Amorgos has the most beautiful scenery of the three islands we visited, being the most mountainous of them.

28 John took a walk one day from Langada to a small monastery. Here is a small Greek vineyard.
29 The walk follows a mule path.
30 Stone steps and a donkey. Even here, the steps have the edge painted to make them easily visible.
31 This shepherd suddenly wandered out of the brush with two dogs.
32 After a kilometer or two, the path reached the Panagia Epanochoriani, a small and very neat monastery. It seemed deserted.
33 In India we only see dogs, but in Greece, cats abound, like this handsome grey moggie.
34 Looking out over Nikouria Island, which bounds Aigiali Bay on the south.
35 The sea is visible to the east of the monastery too. A very peaceful place.
36 Some of the cats of the Panagia Epanochoriani.
37 The church has a lovely blue dome.
38 On the way back, a look at Strombos almost buried in a valley.
