I thought working at Head Smashed In was windy,I take it back. Crete is beautiful and sunny, but we keep chasing our hats. We arrived in Iraklion which is a large port city, on thursday and stayed two nights...in Don's view two nights to many since our hotel room was at the end of a runway.
We rented a car and took off for Matala on the south coast. On the way we did stop at Gortyna, an archaeological site which was quite cool. Matala is a picturesque beach town surrounded by cliffs that are full of Roman burial caves. I was here at 19 and it was a kind of a trendy hippy hang out place back then and I think some of those people are still here hanging out. It is quite the tourist town...about ten bus loads of people arrived this morning and then all disappear by 5:00 pm. We are heading east tomorrow and will spend another three days on Crete then fly to Rhodes. All is well, we have not killed each other yet and that is a good sign from the gods.
