Crete...... Yummy ooompah

Crete Greece……Nov 25


As I write this we are sailing by Santorini.

Well this was great detour. It was a great day. Sunshine and warm temps. We rented a cab for 5 hours with some new friends. We had a tour of the Island. We then went to the ruins of Knossos, the archiological museum of Herakeion and the Greece orthodox cathedral. We then asked the driver to take us to a good local restaurant. He took us 15 min out of town down the coast to a fish tavern. We had unbelievable seafood lunch. We started out with ouzo, calamari, grilled octopus, shrimp, taziki, fresh sardines fried potatoes.

For desert we had a yummy orange cake, fresh fruit and multiple shots of raki.

All this was on the beach overlooking the Mediterranean sea

Along the way he took us to this small church that was located with a small cave. This cave and restaurant were not on the basic tourist route.
