In this hotel my family and another 3 foreign family were attacked by thief's over the last night just few hours to go home, I was more than disappointing about the security in this place, about the reaction of the authorities and also the attitude of the hotel manager. The police has no reaction and the hotel manager doesn't want to get in contact with me when I informed about the theft , latter one when I succeed to get his e-mail address he went to the Police ...

... you get out of the large centres. It is still not affordable, but we have little choice in the matter as that price is about as low as you can find here. Our first night we walked to Agia Pelagia which is 1.5 Km from us down hill. Everything here is either up hill or down hill and the hills are steep! We bought groceries for our kitchen and found the walk back up not too bad. for the first two ...

... no walls of defense, and may have been ruled by queens of the Minoan dynasty. There is a possibility that the "boys and girls" were sent as young couples to repopulate the palace and life was so good that they stayed. As it is an island, they were never heard from again and people developed a story about the Minotaur to explain why the people never returned.<br> Otherwise, we spent the rest ...

... we got into a simple rythym.......a kind of Greek therapeutic massage.....swimming in the mornings......coffee and books in the arvo ............stuffing our faces on cretan goodness............then boozing until we could stand it no longer......which on Yannis backwards clock we could never tell when it actually was...... Just what the doctor ordered! Much love and Yamas! from Yannis

Just finished reading Portraits by Cynthia Freeman. Makes me feel even more grateful for my family. I must be one of the luckiest girls around to have a family who love and support me.

We sell nice food.. fish.. meat.." and they quote the whole menu to you while all you want to do is run away. So in our case not the best way to get us to eat there. That's sounds like rather childish behaviour of us if I read that :/ <br><br>I just swollowed salt water *Yuck!* The sea was lovely though - many waves!<br>

... apartement. But at last -we didn't think we would ever get there!- we arrived there and sat down exhausted, dripping with sweat, at the pool dipping our feet in the lovely cool water. I almost, almost, jumped in it with all my clothes on and all! After a few minutes Eve decided to get busy and clean the pool and tried to get bugs and leaves out of it with a fsihing net. When back at our aprtment we ...

The sun going down over the moutains, the soft hush of the air conditioning, a beautiful view over Agia Pelagia and kittens playing under the olive trees. We arrived at our villa. We are still wet from the swimmingpool and smell of chlorine. It is more ;like a holiday so far eventhough it was quite a feet to get here. <br><br>Being 'hassled' by taxi drivers as soon as we ...

... Today, with a final score of 4 to 1, all the Dutch are happy. Even though the girls and I know almost nothing about soccer, we found ourselves drawn into the excitement. We had to stop to watch the last half hour of play. Today, we're planning to go to a taverna at 9:45pm to watch the Greece-Russia game. Why not get into the European scene here? Today, we took a bus into Iraklio to shop at the mid-town market and to see Knossos. Because the ...
