Monday, 27-04-26, day seven . . .

 . . . and last full day, woe is me!  :-)

Yesterday, we spent the day in Chania (pronounces h-arn-ya).  Here's a site with info about this  interesting town.   Chania, Crete: The Ultimate Local Travel Guide for 2026

And here's its history - I find it very interesting.  Chania - A City Of Many Tales

We hopped on and off the coach, were given a guided tour of the older parts, taken to the harbour and from there we wandered, shopped and enjoyed the Mediterranean vibe before meeting up for lunch.  It was a nice lunch, but very tourist-y rather than totally traditional.  
Once back home again, we chilled until dinner.

That's a quick resume.  Here's some photos.  :-)









Today we are off to some Botanical Gardens where we will be met by the owner who will show us round and then the more energetic can do a longer, more difficult walk around while the rest of us chill over coffee and/or gently meander around.  I will be one of the latter group as I'm feeling quite weary.

This evening is the party that was scheduled on a day where we had rain - it will be outside in the hotel gardens.

Before then, sadly, we will be packing for our return to the UK tomorrow.   Very mixed feelings here - I always like getting home again but this is such a very lovely place . . .
