3 November to 19 November

I originally planned to travel from Thessaloniki to Albania, but decided to spend more time in Greece. Many people highly recommended Crete and spoke of the many places to visit on the island.

I thought the town of Chania would be a good place to start.

I booked a home that had been converted from an old tannery on the water.

At one time Chania had 200 tanneries, today there are six.

It was a great place to stay, at least a week, and catch my breath after a month on the road.

I looked forward to catching up on a number of things, including writing posts for this blog.

I decided to stay in Chania and not go anywhere else.

Some of the changing views from my home:

I spent the last week in Chania planning my trip to Egypt.
