Just a quick post to say we made it safely to Crete where we've spent the last three nights in Hania and are now in Iraklio from where we are catching a ferry to Santorini tomorrow afternoon.
From Hania we hiked the Samaria gorge which was a gorge-os (he he) 16km walk through some amazing rock formations. The hard part was the bus ride from Hania to the start of the track up a very steep, narrow and winding road with lots of goats who were not one bit bothered by the bus!
Today we saw Knossos, the former Minoan capital of Crete, largely recreated (with some imagination) by british archeologists.
Looking forward to more sunshine and chilling on Santorini where we've just booked three nights in a place with a pool : )
We haven't learnt much greek yet but we'll have some time on the four hour ferry ride tomorrow.
Halfway through our trip already, cant't believe it!!
Love to you all,
F & G
