Ferry to Crete, Greece

Saturday, August 7th, 2010
An early morning to catch our ferry to Crete....but we made it in plenty of time to the port and our superfast boat (6 hours). It's the only way to go – we have a cabin for 4 that has 2 sets of bunkbeds and a bathroom with a shower. Of course the girls are in paradise as forts have been made and remade on the upper bunks. I had memories of when I purchased just a deck seat on the ferry – all I could think about was 12-20 hour boat rides that were never ending heat and trying to find a comfortable place to eat, sleep, watch my bags etc... In the cabins it is air-conditioned and we have just enough space to stow all of our luggage and relax comfortably. The girls had fun swimming in the salt water pool and the ice cream of course has kept everyone cool on the deck.
We're looking forward to landing in Heraklion and making our way to the resort in Rethmyno – a 90 minute drive away.
