Visited Steph's Grandparents today
It's always fun visiting Raymond and Lise because they're just such good hosts! As soon as we walked in we were offered food, then wine (but not until 6pm, hahah), and other soft drinks.

Day 22, 23, 24, 25 - Crete
Day 22: Took the ferry to Irakilon, Crete after lazing around the pool for the rest of the afternoon. It was a FAST boat, like a big airplane, but on the water. A little rough for me though, I felt kind of seasick for most of the ride. After unsucessfully looking for a rental car place at the port, we took a taxi up to our hotel. It was about a 30 ( Read more... )
