CRETE

Tuesday

22.4.2008

We had everything packed up by 9.00 and those that were leaving set off to the Souda Bay Cemetery  for Allied Forces in the 2nd World War.

Afterwards we visited the Monastery of Agia Triada on the Acrotiri peninsula near the Airport.

We had a little turbulence on the flight home and were looking forward to landing when the pilot said there was an incident at Gatwick and we did not have enough fuel to stay circling around awaiting our turn to land.   We landed at Luton refuelled and finally landed at Gatwick two hours late.   We would have liked to get out at Luton and take the train from there, but that was not allowed.
