Got up shortly after 5am to go hike Samaria Gorge. It was a lovely hike through a tall narrow gorge down to the sea.
Unfortunately, we didn't realize that they only ferry out of the town on the far end was at 5:30, where as we finished the hike at 3:30. It was basically your standard tourist town nightmare, and we didn't have our swimsuits with us. The beach was thick pebbles, almost impossible to walk on barefoot, but the swimming looked good with a fast fall off and decent waves. We considered going in wearing our clothes, but after not being allowed on the bus in the morning with a cup of coffee (some people have no mercy!), we didn't want to find out what they'd think of wet clothes. The swimsuits are going in day pack in the future!
The bus timing back was also kind of lousy and we didn't get back until around 9:30, and the sunset we wanted to see over the fortress was basically over. We walked around the fortress anyway though, it was nicely illuminated.
