... 11u30 en eentje om 13u30.
Vlak bij waar de bus stopt, zitten een aantal mannen aan tafeltje in de schaduw van een grote boom. Bij dat tafeltje staat info Spinalonga en de man met het geldkistje verkoopt tickets voor de boot.

Easter Sunday Greek style
*SIGH* what an excellent nights sleep, a good 12 hours! The sun was shining and the sky was clear blue so it was straight into swimmers and down to the pool as we had missed brekky (oops!). The sun was HOT, it was so nice to be lying, relaxing and soaking it up. A volley ball match was arranged and we couldn't resist.
