Crete is the largest island in Greece, and the only one I was not sure to visit due to time and distance constraint.  I decided to take a brief 2-day trip to visit the Palace of Knossos, origin of the earliest civilization in Europe.  Then I stayed in Elounda, simply to relax at the beach.  Ironically I encountered the first rain in our trip, but the thick layers of clouds offered me plenty of photo opportunities to stay happy.
