I have an open invitation to visit with friends who have a spare house in Crete, and so far I haven't got there. I LOVE mainland Greece and I feel the Aegean calling my name...!

Was this your first time in Crete and have you seen much of the rest of Greece?

CLEVER move to avoid school holidays too! Our friends say it's over-run and not a nice place to be when the hordes arrive. I live in Thailand where we are expecting in excess of 40 million tourists this year!! And so the very last thing I want to see when I travel is another tourist. LOL

Enjoyed the colours and the vibe and am suddenly wondering if we can find a few weeks somewhere in 2020. haha... 'twould be nice.
