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.
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!)

A food tour of Crete! We visited the Cretan Dragon olive grove and dragonfruit farm, where we learned about Cretan agriculture and tasted some produce. Then we went to @titakiswines, where Andrea led us on a tour of the vineyard and a tasting of wine and raki. We finished with a lovely lunch. Perfect day!

Current whereabouts – somewhere over the Mediterranean…

That island was once a giant lizard that Zeus turned to stone with a lightning bolt!
Happy birthday Pants Head!! Love, Panten
Happy birthday, little brother!
We have eaten well every day in Greece. Tonight was Cretan craft beer, salad with dried figs and local cheese, pork souvlaki, and a dip made of split peas. I’m also loving this tradition of restaurants giving us raki (distilled grape spirit) to finish off the meal!

Congrats and to many more
