They are the nicest people. More than the house and more than the city was the joy of meeting Eirini and Vincent, not to mention their two very remarkable children. Certainly, Iraklio is a wonderful place to explore, as is Crete, but I can tell you that it all would have been so impersonal, just another stop along the way, without the wonderful introduction that they gave me to their city and culture. I could go on and on and on and not but scratch the surface in my glowing description. In fact, what they showed me left such an impression that I will go soon back to Iraklio and to visit with them...perhaps retire there... look up their friends and see a bit more of the culture that is vibrant, positive and charming. I will stop, but I could go on and on and on...
