Hot Walk To Rethymnon
September 20, 2007

We decided to walk along the coast to Rethymnon, approximately three miles, assuming we would be toes in the sand, cooling them in the surf. Unfortunately the beach soon gave way to pebbles. Which were a nightmare to walk over in slides and about 40 minutes later we were dripping with sweat and heading inland for the promenade; where we spotted a supermarket and went in to stand by the frozen goods!


We wandered around the harbour, fending off offers of lunch at the many restaurants there, before heading to the old town for some photos, like the Rimondi Fountain [above] and then a bus back to Platanes. In the afternoon it clouded over while we were lounging around the garden getting over the morning's trek. Out of the blue a small dog came in and hid under our sun loungers for about 20 minutes before heading off again. Odd! perhaps he was being followed.

We went back to Marino's hoping a sunset might creep through the cloud but it just got worse so we headed back to the apartment and read while listening to the Underworld Electraglide 2005 tracks I downloaded before we left.
