We all made it to Crete; light snow in London, almost missed connection in Athens, arrived last night after midnight. Put the bikes together this morning, and went out for a short loop. Temps in the 80's, spent a lot of time on the road though not much in actual miles. We didn't really have a route mapped out, so we faked it, and one choice turned out to be a long section of gravel (Lorilei's fault). The roads otherwise are generally good. Lots of drivers honking to say "hi".
Everything is green, wildflowers are out, back in the olives and vineyards! Strava link for the day: http://app.strava.com/activities/47333472. Great start to the trip!
