We had 4 more nights to spend somewhere on Crete and decided we like the energy and old town of Heraklion, so we came back. We have a different apartment, but interestingly in the same building! Our door is on a different side and our windows face more east but we have a small balcony, 1 bedroom loft and a nice small kitchen. We are happy here, relaxing for a couple days before our flight to Malta!


After a day of laundry and recouping, We discovered a walk around the walls of the old city, visiting many of the old gates.


We even got to walk on a small portion of the top of the wall.


















We saw these gates on an earlier walk, the old Venetian ship docks

It was a great hike! Almost 4 miles total! After we stopped at our favorite dinner place, the Anchorage, run by a lovely old couple, Mrs. Irini and Capt. John. It’s great homemade Greek and Cretan dishes!



Got our 10k steps in today!
