Creta / Knossos

This would be Prague as we left . . . shudder . . . .

This is the view from our hotel in Hersinossos, Crete that same day

We wound up getting the All-Inclusive option from the hotel . . . 
the check-in clerks while gorgeous were also persuasive . . . 
it seemed like a good deal . . . 3 meals and all you can drink
the buffet was pretty good that night . . . 
Mrs made the same greek salad 5 nights in a row 8^D

then there would be the buffet hot dishes . . . 
unnameable varieties . . . 

took the tour at knossos the next day with this charming grandmother . . .

first courtyard

double headed axe labrys which gave its name to the labrynth

famous murals

columns made of inverted  cypress trunks



you have to love these girls . . . 


take the bull by the horns,
pommel vault.
stick the landing 
casualty rate was apparently very high . . . 
giving rise to "the horns of a dilemma"











kings quarters / offices


Queens Room

Theatre for 150 people
