Also known as Heraklion, Iraklion is another two hours east of Rethmynon. It is the capital of Crete and quite a big city, but not particularly attractive and not a lot to see so we jumped on a bus to the southern beach of Matala (two hours each way). The weather wasn't great and with that much travelling it was a bit of a quick stop, but we still managed some good r&r on the beach before heading back to Iraklion.
Here is Ange with our staple Greek diet of the "Pita Gyros", which comprises of a pita filled with chicken or pork, and tomatoes, onions, tzatziki, and french fries. Mmmm... On average we have had about one a day while in Greece!
