We left Chania after stopping at the grocery store for some breakfast and enjoying it at the beach. It wasn't long before we were on the long beach before Rethimno and as we were the only ones as far as we could see, we stripped off and enjoyed a leisurely cooling swim. The hotel receptionist had recommended we visit the birthplace of El Greco where there is a museum so we ventured again on a gravel twisty road with construction adding to the driving stress only to discover it was closed! 🤯 Another swim was in order so we stopped at a resort area for a refreshing cool down. Back to Heraklion at the same hotel and they gave us a suite! The following day we took the city bus to their big beach, rented sunbeds and an umbrella and spent a few leisurely hours. The following day we were up before 0700 to catch our flight to Athens where we picked up a rental car to drive to Preveza to pick up our boat gear. After 40 minutes driving, we went back as Bob said something was wrong with the steering!🤯😬 It turns out the "wandering lane" button was on so the steering automatically puts you back in the lane but you lose control momentarily! Scary! Once that got sorted, we left again and the 4 hour drive ended up being 6+hours with a brief lunch stop and ferry trip in the middle. We arrived in Preveza hot and tired but dinner and a walk on the sea front chatting to sailors and watching docking and anchoring shenanigans (been there and done that 🤪) lifted our spirits. As we walked past our favourite restaurant, we were greeted like old friends and given ouzo as a nightcap. A lovely finish to a long, 🥵🥱 day.Read more
