To the popular Greek Island of Crete now… this is the biggest island. Attire is now in beach mode, no more mountain-climbing mode…

Marinelife observation…. Multiple schools of fishes, bottom-scrapers… sea-urchin underneath a rock which emitted something when I dived near to it…

All captured underwater were video clips from which the shots here have been extracted from. The video clips were too large to upload…

Am still on Crete Island now… will be visiting the Old Town and Venetian Port before flying back to the mainland (Athenia).

From Athenia, will be driving north, visiting mainland Greece, enroute to Albania.

Final destination is Belgrade, Serbia from where we rented our vehicle, and our starting point for The Adriatic Circle exploration…

Greek Coffee at Chania Airport…. Greek Coffee feels like having sand in the brew….😐

Decided to explore one final beach in the evening yesterday, Marathi Beach at the northern tip of Crete Island… it was too late to rent a speedboat to explore the islands…

Hence…. Exercised with the paddle-boat for one hour… EUR20. Watched the sunset.
