This morning at 09.40 finds me sitting by the harbour in Praeus, having just bought my ticket to Heraklion. If anything deserves a sit down and time to write in my notebook, then spending money for travel is right up there! The equivalent of £2 for a 12-hour trip. The only draw back is that the ship is not sue to set sail until early this evening at 18.30 hrs.
I have no idea how I spent the rest of the day. I imagine I made myself at home in the local tavernas.
I noted that Piraeus was a large, sprawling and bustling town, with a population at that time of around 500.000.
…neon-lit advertisements, fountains etc….lights playing on the oily water of the harbour.
Tomorrow sees me going beyond Heraklion to my little paradise, whose moon featured in a Joni Mitchell song.
