Day 6 19/3/14 - Athens to Crete

Antio Athens and Yassas Crete!

After a short 50 minute flight (1.5 hours by train to the airport!) we landed in Chania.


 Chania was the capital of Crete until 1971. Today life in the city revolves around the picturesque harbour and historic Spiantza Quarter with Venetian houses lining cobbled streets, modern restaurants and art galleries.
