Knossos

Its a red hot day and there are disgorged tourists EVERYWHERE.  Our first stop is for water at the cafe where we gird our loins for the expedition.  We duck the guided tours relying on Roger and his trusty guidebook!

The site and history of Knossos is huge!  As the time went on we faded.  It was just too hot, too many people, too many pushy guides elbowing us out of the way to give their diatribes in French, English or German.

But that's Crete in the busiest season.   We vow to visit smaller, less well known sites.

Our chance came the very next day...
