Day 16: Rhodes to Crete to Santorini

This morning, we arrived in Heraklion, which is the capital of Crete. We took a 7 a.m. excursion to a small wine-producing village called Peza, where they had a wine-tasting (while we looked for postcards). Then, we went to another small village, called Archanes, where we got to taste Greek pastries and see some traditional Greek singing and dancing. Tonight, we're in Santorini at an internet cafe. Tomorrow, we sail back to Athens and catch a plane -- we can't believe it's almost over. Picture 1: Sunrise in Heraklion (we've seen more sunrises in the last few days than we've seen in decades); Picture 2: A 3500 year-old Minoan farmhouse on Crete; Picture 3: Even modest homes in Archanes have elaborate courtyards; Picture 4: Greek dancers and musicians.
