Rethimnon, Crete – July 6

July 9th, 2011 by Denise Bala

Today we visited the archeological museum in the charming Venetian town of Chania, where we saw pottery, sculpture, mosaics and coins dating from the Neolithic period to the Roman era. A walk through the town allowed for a bit of shopping and refreshment. In the afternoon, the beautifully recreated Palace of Knossos,  in the ancient capital of King Minos, was our destination. In keeping with the Greek tradition of delicious food and flowing wine, we enjoyed a lovely dinner, then heard a wonderful lecture on tomorrow’s stop, Delos.
