Day 5 Rethimno

Today it is calling for rain so the plan is to do 1.5 hour walk this morning then finish up later in the day.  As it turns out no rain.  I could have done another load of laundry.  Yesterday I did a small load, took 2 hours in the machine!  I will figure out a quicker way.  The snow in the mountains is beautiful.  We have a 9km beach with a nice malecon that we can walk along.  The beach needs some clean up before summer gets here, we will keep our eyes open to see if there is an organized beach clean up day.  So far our entire Greek vocabulary is good morning, Kalee Mara, or something like that.  Good thing it kind of sounds like calamari or we would never remember it.

The road that follows the beach into town

Hundred of small hotels 

After our beach walk we venture out onto the pier, we had only been out here at night up to now.

This is the symbol of the city 

At the end of the pier the fisherman have little stands set up selling their catch

Since the rain did not come as predicted today, we went for a lunch time walk around old town.

Little Catholic church we found 

Movie theatre in town. Wonder if they have English movie? I think we would be lucky to have sub titles but one never know.

Need some TLC, love the overhang

for then 7, 8 9 club.

Before supper we head out again for another walk and to try to get some sunset pictures. We walk along the road along the shore that goes around the castle.

Hope we can remember how to find this place again.
