Springtime With Julie

Julie, (Suzanna's sister) came for a visit around Easter.  This was her third visit since we have been here and her fifth trip to Crete.  Our friend Sean took us to visit many Churches on Good Friday, we cooked a tasty Easter dinner, and went to the Easter vigil service at Agia Triada Monastery.

We also hiked between two Monasteries and went on a short hike overlooking Balos Bay.

I am short on pictures from this trip.  My camera stopped working along the hike to the Metamorphosis.  Julie has more pictures.  Julie, if you send me some of you pictures, I will add them to the Blog!
