  1. 3 planes in quick succession @ 0900 but no more heard by us.
  2. One month? I once went on a brand new survey vessel for 3 weeks around Shetland and Orkney. Rust was appearing in several places and it was summer & calm.

  6. Have you experienced the mountain road from Andalnes that really is exciting especially when you meet another coach coming the other way?
  7. This was our 4th visit and easily the worst ref cable car. It took me 50 minutes from centre of town to the cable car but it seemed much longer. Not helped by a group of Italian women both large and very loud who tried to push past everybody and blocked those coming from the cable car. Eventually they were stopped by others and some sort of normality was restored. I fell in with 4 Americans on their first visit who were not impressed.
  8. There have been port presentations on all ports bar Heraklion
