Dear Spohie,
Crete is perfect for a summer holiday! The mornings are usually (1), with a light wind that makes walking along the beach very pleasant. By midday it becomes (2), around 27°C, so we swim and enjoy the sun loungers. Yesterday it was quite (3), and it kept blowing my hat off – we laughed so much. In the evening we had dinner at a seaside restaurant, and the sunset was absolutely stunning. The food is delicious, especially the fresh seafood and olives. Greece is everything I hoped for and more!
Best wishes, Olivia
