One of the things I was most excited to see in Heraklion was the Phaistos Disc. This clay disc was discovered in Crete in 1908 and is covered in symbols from an unknown language. No one knows what it means. I learned about the disc a few years back when I was researching “mysteries” to knit into a scarf. (I ended up going with the Wow Signal.) Isn’t it cool? Now we have a smaller magnetic version stuck on our fridge.

A perfect Oktoberfest day. Two years ago it was rainy and cold, but today we had blue skies and sunshine. We caught up with friends, enjoyed beer and Bavarian food, bought some souvenirs, and escaped before it got too crowded. ❤️🍻☀️ #oktoberfest

I’ve never been to a restaurant that had an entire separate menu just of olive oils! Thanks to @peskesi for a wonderful evening of local food served with generosity and pride. (And though he was initially skeptical of the dessert, it was delicious!)

Knossos. Unfortunately it’s pretty hard to separate out what is actual archaeology from the deluded, fanciful “reconstruction” of the British guy who excavated it, but it was still fascinating to see the ruins of a civilisation we know so little about.
