Our Small Place in the Cretan Sun

Sunny again

Once the sun returned, we were able to devote time touring around. A short trip to Vrysses once the old road was open again, allowed us to wander around our nearest town ("to-be"), and discover what we could get locally. We even managed to talk to the Vet about bringing Rufus, Tigger and Buffy over with us. A tasty lunch at the taverna near the bridge allowed us to sit and watch the river still in full torrent.

We also ventured into Chania as we had to go to our bank. For years we hated going into Chania as it was always so hot and airless, but we just about found it bearable in October. We always go to the cafe in the public park (with the kri-kri) to relax before doing the town. Whilst wandering about the harbour we came across a museum housing a fascinating replica of a Minoan boat and the old Venetian warehouses on the waterfront.

Each time we visit Rethymnon or Chania we always discover something new - even the site of the Chania webcam on the harbour.
