Ηράκλειο
Eventually we became used to the fact that there could be one spelling on the map, another on a road sign or something in Greek that we couldn't understand at all!
Our first night in Ηράκλει, Heriklion, Heraklion or Ireklion was warm and wonderful. Our boutique hotel overlooked the harbour. We were too full after all the food on the flight but we could just manage a glass of wine before bed!
The next morning we had time to do a huge circular walk along the back streets and the harbour, taking the Venetian cisterns, orthodox churches and of course the harbour itself.
Tantalising views of fresh fish, cheeses and restaurants whet our appetite for what hopefully is to come!
