A strange year for us without travels as Chris has been recovering from an ankle replacement since May and still has to take it easy. After a summer with more cloud than sunshine, we were eager to escape for some warmth before settling into winter.
We have chosen Rethymno on the north coast of Crete as the days should generally be warm even if it’s cooler in the evening, and are staying at the Pepe Boutique hotel, in the heart of the old town with a sunny courtyard around a small pool, just in case we fancy a dip!
Everything is right on our doorstep including a scattering of museums and churches, the Venetian harbour with its promenade and a selection of tavernas so we can keep walking within limits. If we decide to hire a car, we can explore a little further afield, but the plan is just to take each day as it comes and enjoy.
