... photos! Whilst I was still nursing burning calves from the trek two days previous, Lou was keen to go and explore so we decided to visit Venizelos Tombs that are located about 5km from town. A 10 minute bus ride or, as Lou decided, a one and a half hour uphill walk! It turned out to be well worthwhile but the downhill walk back did little to ease my aching legs.

On the way we stop off in ...

We went back to the hotel and had more breakfast (I have never been so full in my life). Unfortunately, we had to leave after breakfast to catch our flight. We wish we had more time in Crete, but are so excited for our next stop - Istanbul! -Walter and Rachel (we'll split in pictures from Crete into 2 ...
