Crete
After a windswept rocky night we arrived in a very cold soggy port of Heraklion. Fitbit could not record sleep until we docked at 7:00 am!⁰ It's a busy commercial with containers stacked like Lego bricks. It brightened up a bit later so we took the shuttle bus into town and had a short walk around. Nothing to write home about except the designer shops, M&S and lots of coffee shops. We had two massive pork gyros and chicken souvlaki in a fast food taverna. Read about some Cretan history in the museum, which had a Ukrainian demo outside later, then caught the bus back. It's felt bitterly cold on the strong northerly wind and there is snow on the surrounding mountain sides. We were expecting this to be the hottest destination, but it was officially the coldest day of the winter in Crete.
