Krini Hotel Elounda

... tennis, playstation, tv and pool on offer and there is also 14 lovely little bungalows you can stay in for your holiday, right on the beach if you don't want to camp in a tent.
Just imagine waking up to the view of the waves crashing on the rocks right outside your door ........... I can't wait for next summer as we will definately be there again.

p.s. After reading some of the other blogs I agree Hersonissos can be a crazy place in town ...

... especially now that I am listening to Ave Maria on my iPod - the song I want to be married on, It makes me feel so calm, so peaceful. There are no words.

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 ...

... br> Another highlight was the palace of Knossos where we also learned several new things. This is the palace where the Minotaur, half man half bull, is said to lived in the palace's many roomed maze. Every year seven girls and seven boys from Athens were sent to Knossos for him to eat. What we learned is that life was probably very good in Knossos ( the first flush toilets in the world) . It was ...

... br>Si cum in statiune treceam in fiecare zi pe langa un birou pe sticla caruia era gravat “Pascal Homes”. Si cum framantarea interiora si pasiunea pentru real-estate nu mi-au dat pace, am intrat intr-o seara pe la 18.00, atunci cand Kir Paschalis deschidea biroul de dupa-amiaza.

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 :/

I just swollowed salt water *Yuck!* The sea was lovely though - many waves!

... exhausted on our bed.

Being so very hot we changed into our bikinis and with our big bags of this and that -books, puzzles, Lonely Planet, paper, pen, iPod etc- we went down to the swimming pool.

... heavy backpacks. I just hear or parents say 'I told you so!', but why did we take so many clothes with us? All we need is a bikini! Finally - after my flipflops breaking and me not being able to bend down to make them- Laura did it for me- we saw the sign we had arrived at our destination at last! Phew!
