Back To Rethymnon
September 24, 2007

Despite the sunshine to the South yesterday it's still cloudy in Platanes. When we wake up we walk down to Marino's for breakfast while we ponder how to spend our last day. It looks sunny over Rethymnon so we jump on a bus and head over there and wander through some parts of the Old Town that we missed the other day. Have couple of beers and take a look around the Venetian Fort overlooking the harbour. Architecturally, Rethymnon is a nice combination of Venetian and Turkish influences.

Heading back to the bus station we follow the coast road and spot a nice taverna, called Sunset, with, unsurprisingly, sunset views. We sit there for a couple of hours but sunset isn't for at least two more... So we head back and eat at a taverna that we have visited before in Platanes and have more Giovetsi. Alas, this has been a holiday with no sunsets but the tan was topped up nicely and I managed to get through two books. I would have managed the other two as well if we had had more time on the beach as we had planned.

Still, it's nice to be sat outside eating at 11:00. I ask the waiter for a few Giovetsi cooking tips in case I fancy knocking one up when we get back and cinnamon appears to be the secret ingredient.
