Day 22 4th day of cruise
We have arrived at Heraklion Crete. We stagger on shore at 8am to have a quick look as we had to leave by 11. This s the largest island and very commercial. As we walked quickly around we tried to find an Internet cafe which we think is costing us more in coffee than paying for it on the ship. Then had a relaxing afternoon on the ship in the sun while we sailed to Santorini. This is the most popular island and as we pull in there ...

Athens
... and comfortable for walking around. It was a stiffish pull up a steeply cobbled walkway to the entry gate for the Acropolis. We learnt that prams weren't allowed up, so we had to check them in at the foot of the walkway and lug R and littler a - not fun climbing up!
