Tomorrow I shall be going to Crete again. I visited the island about this time last year and blogged from it – you can find last year’s posts here.
I’m flying in and out of the same airport (Chania) as last year, but thereafter the itinerary will be different. Instead of spending the week in Chania I shall be on the south coast, in the village of Paleochora, for four nights. They’ll actually be nights 2 to 5 of the holiday – thanks to the flight not arriving in Crete until 8:30 or so Monday evening I’ll be spending the first night in a hotel in Chania. Then I’ll get the bus to Paleochora on Tuesday morning.
On Saturday I’ll be returning to Chania for a final couple of nights in a very nice hotel around the harbour – Casa Delfina. I walked past it a number of times last year and it did look very inviting. It’s also rather pricey – the two nights there are costing more than the other five nights together.
Then I’ll return to the UK on the 20th. However, the flight back isn’t until just before 9pm – it’s the same plane as the outbound flight, returning to the UKĀ – so I won’t be getting to East Midlands airport until at least 11:15pm, and possibly much later. Given that Val has to get up early on Tuesday morning to drive to Stoke for her job, we’ve agreed that I shall spend a final night away in the exotic location of an on-airport Premier Inn. That will be the highlight of the trip, I know…..
I shall be doing posts while I’m away so call in again from time to time.
