Welcome to Greece

After touching down in Athens last night, made my way to departure gate 15B for the flight to Chania, Crete. Normally I would catch a bus into the city, however, they have stopped running by that hour at night so took a taxi then walked the last 10 minutes to my accommodation at Fivos Pension in the Old Harbour, arriving just on midnight. Excellent choice found on Booking.com, perfect room for me, comfortable bed, fantastic shower, quiet and location, location, location! 30 Euro per night.

After a much needed good night’s sleep, this morning I ventured for a walkabout… changed my Sim Card over to a Greek number, bought my ticket for the bus tomorrow to Kastelli Kissamos and enjoyed a chicken Souvlaki for brunch… great value at 2.70 Euro (about NZ$4.50).
