Hey everyone, I was supposed to be back in Poky tonight, but we are having really bad weather here so my flight got delayed. I should be in Wednesday night or so. They are seeing snow for the first time in two years here!

St. John's Cave and Monastery
Hi everyone, yesterday Shawn and I went to St. John's Cave. It is where St. John the Hermit lived (or was said to have lived). Then we walked down into a gorge where there was a very old monastery. They are no longer in use but there is a monastery at the top of the mountain that is still used. We weren't aloud to take pictures in there. The walk to the bottoms of the gorge was very steep and we walked along an old rock path (that was falling apart). It was a nice walk but the walk back up was not so easy. We were the only ones there so we were able to take our time and walk around inside of the old buildings and caves. It was a great experience and we had a lot of fun. The two slide shows below are from our walk. The pictures above are Shawn and me at St. John's Cave and then us about half way up from the bottom of the gorge (we were tired!). Hope that you all enjoy.

Photos
Hey everyone! I went around and took pictures the other day while Shawn was at work and they are posted below, there are more at photobucket keyword sstuart18 if you want more. Enjoy!
Crete Pictures
I went out driving and these are some of the pictures that I took. I had a really good time. Shawn was at work so he didn't get to go, but he liked the pictures. I am going to take him back up to a monastery that I found in the mountains. St. John's Cave is back there so we are going to walk down to it soon. Hope you all like. 
Souda Bay Harbor
This is the harbor where Shawn works. The large island is an old Venetian fort that was used to protect the harbor from enemies up to WWII.
