Chania, Crete

So we arrived safely after having to run through Athens airport to make our connecting flight, unfortunately our bags were not as fast as we were.

We met up with Alex who had stocked our fridge with local food made by her in-laws, and even some vegemite. We explored the port and the old town. Cats were everywhere and the food was fantastic.

We also checked out the local old shul on simchat torah. The kids were impressed by the Ottoman cannonballs on the ground and we ate Viennese sachta torte in the sukkah. 

Seitan was a beach well worth the challenge to get to. After climbing down the steep ravine we heard that there was a wager going on whether the family of six would attempt the mountain goat terrain.
