Spent the afternoon in Rethymnon Crete Greece It is a nice town Rethimnon or Rethymnon half way between Heraklion and Hania. Apart from a completely destroyed fort, it doesn't particularly have anything. However it does have many tiny pedestrian streets cutely paved with ceramic. These streets have an infinite number handicraft stores. It is just pleasant to walk by these little cute streets. The bus ride to Heraklion is 1:30 hours and tiring. Below are some images at Rethymnon:

Dario is in CHANIA - Kriti. No Samaria Gorge After all. Well, I arrived to CHANIA in Crete this morning. There are too few flights directly to Chania, so my flight was to Heraklion and then I had to take a 3 hour boring bus to Chania (pronounced Hania ). Chania is nice, there is a long walking area or promenade by the sea and it has old buildings and structures. I was also going to visit the Samaria Gorge, which was one of the attractions that brought me here in the first place.

Nighttime In Heraklion Crete Greece I arrived tonight at Heraklion in Crete Greece, though my final destination is Chania for the weekend. The airport is really small. The . It is one of these towns where people eat at outdoor restaurants all night long. It does have historic parts and buildings but few compared to the ugly tourist buildings. On the stopover at Milans Malpensa airport, I took an hour and visited the town of Novara and met a wonderful Scottish lady artist and architect. The fotos for Novara are on an iphone I bought after the robbery I suffered two weeks ago. But unfortunatelly with anything Apple, you cannot connect pull anything out of it without some software. No access to the harddrive. Above: building in Iraklio Above: Me and a church in Iraklio
