LASSITHI PLATEAU - BACK IN TIME!

Hi everyone,

Just back for the Lassithi Plateau where I have been doing a recke for old houses there. There are lots of them. It is another world up there, far from the madding crowd and beautiful. If you want to escape, climb mountain, or just hide away in a cottage with a log fire, then this is the place. It is only 40 minutes away from Vrahassi, the road from Malia, though windy, is very good and the Dikti mounains surround the flat plateau. We had wonderful food (meze) at a small cafeneo in Agios Yorgos and wonderful company too.

I'm running late so promise to continue the 'It's just a story' tomorrow. David and I are off out to dinner with a couple of friends from Limness.

Oh, just to say that the 'Chinese Night' is fully booked. Sorry if you missed this one, maybe I can persuade Julia to repeat another month.

It is hailing ice at the moment in Vrahassi - winter has arrived!
