Two Lazy Days In Sitia

SATURDAY
Saturday is going to be a lazy restful day at home.
I was awake really early again, in time again for another sunrise and also in time to watch the Ferry arrive and dock. Although it was a car Ferry there were only people boarding a line of at least 50 people. It was a case of if you blinked you missed it, the Ferry was only in port for about 15 minutes.
Just before lunch we take a walk around Sitia again then stop for a drink, not to Martin standards but beggars can't be choosers as craft beer or even a dark beer non existent here. We walk back via the beach Martin found, it looks okay so we may have to pop down there later, now it's back for lunch.
Martins getting itchy feet so off he goes for a walk around the harbour.
Tonight we're eating at Zorba's restaurant, it's a traditional taverna and soon fills up with regulars and locals. Zorba the owner himself appears later, looks about 106 so tells you the food must be good, melted cheese starter, forgot the name, and Moussaka and Greek Salad for us both, probably best meal of the holiday.
A lovely restful day, just what was needed.

SUNDAY
We we'e going for a south coast fora little excursion today, Sunday, but I woke super early this morning, 5 am, another sunrise. I'm feeling a little unwell and didn't fancy it so we just had another quiet day on the balcony, but then of course Martin gets itchy feet and goes for a walk, today he's heading for the fort that's overlooking the marina. Fantastic views from up there, I don't think I would have made that climb.
When he gets back I'm feeling better so we head off down to the beach and sit and soak up the sun for what's left of the afternoon.
A meal out at Zorba's again tonight, another good one. Fried cheese starter, Chicken and Mushrooms in cream sauce for me and Mixed Meat Grill for Mart. Free pudding and Raiki as well.Read more
