View Full Version : Agia Galini Rob 09-10-2006, 12:57 PM Off to Agia Galini in Crete today - I've never been to Greece so I'm looking forward to it - even if the weather forecast isn't too good. Looks a great place if its website (http://www.agia-galini.com/index.php) is anything to go by. Seabreeze 09-10-2006, 04:54 PM That looks a lovely place Rob, type of holiday destination I would choose. Fee For All 09-10-2006, 06:59 PM Looks great Rob, not that I'm jealous or anything. Are you going for the obvious and staying in the Hotel Adonis? :wink2: Dolores 09-10-2006, 07:47 PM have a great time Rob! :good: how many holidays do teachers get in Scotland?! :w00t: Coastie 11-10-2006, 08:20 AM Have an excellent time Roberto! :cool: Tigereye 11-10-2006, 03:03 PM oooh green as giblets I is - was there in may and it was the dog's dangly bits. beware the raki, beware the raki!!!..........:blush: Rob 18-10-2006, 03:54 PM Just back - had a great time and the weather was magic (apart from the last day when it rained like I have never seen before - picked the wrong time to see Knossos and got soaked - which meant I arrived back in Glasgow this morning wearing shorts and wet trainers!!!) The raki was wonderful - and plentiful - and mainly free :yahoo: I'll post some pictures soon. Tigereye 19-10-2006, 10:58 AM wb Rob - it's a mega place altogether isn't it? I think the Cretans are barking mad and friendly and fond of a drop of the quare stuff. No wonder the celts like them! Rob 19-10-2006, 03:17 PM Some pictures - the first one is the place we stayed - red roof - our balcony is the middle floor - 2nd from the left!! We were above a taverna with the beach just outside - we didn't have to move more than about 50 metres unless we wanted to - of course. We had one room for the four of us - a bit cramped but we didn't spend much time there! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v101/RobPirrie/Crete086.jpg This is the view from the balcony http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v101/RobPirrie/Crete001.jpg A view of the beach area - from above http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v101/RobPirrie/Crete122.jpg I love this shot - took it at night - the colours just look weird! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v101/RobPirrie/Crete005.jpg One last one - for now - a view of the village looking down. Great place - I can't wait to go back - also the prices were amazing - we ate out twice every day! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v101/RobPirrie/Crete030.jpg Patsy 19-10-2006, 03:26 PM I thought it was a character from Star Wars. :huh: Rob 19-10-2006, 04:25 PM I thought it was a character from Star Wars. :huh: Maybe not - but the holiday was out of this world |
