Ferries, part three

Our modern-day Odysseus continues the Aegean journey. Minus cyclopses. And any real hardships to speak of. Plus his wife.

On the way to Crete, our boat made a stop at Halki. This island had the sinlge prettiest Greek Island Village that I saw. The picture is blurry, I know, but the majesty is still there. Our guide book sets the population of this town at 52. The local sponge industry crashed years ago, and lots of those pretty buildings are empty and crumbling.

So beautiful I'm giving you another dose. Halki.
