I love skies, I love width, and I love the sea (I come from northern Germany, where we have all three - and the older I become the more I find out that I love my "roots").

I loved the city (or what I saw of it, which was a bit of the old part), and people were friendly: an angler offered to take photographs of me - and he did it well!

Everything was so alright: same interests, same humour. And we are still in contact, and I am sure we will see each other again (which is seldom with acquaintances from holidays). <br />I am still thinking whether I change my name to "Brittany" - sounds so lovely!

They talked about the money: "We will not pay taxes. The government doesn't give us anything back for it. Look at our roads!" They felt helpless, but were angry "at those at the top".

I wonder what they feel about the financial trouble on the mainland. They have always seen themselves as Cretan rather then Greek, so maybe they don't care.
