If you're lucky you might catch a traditional Cretan dance ceremony. A fisherman repairs one of his nets in a small village on Crete, Greece's largest island. Our most lasting impression, though, came on a midnight walk along the waterfront of Rethimnon when we chanced upon the annual St. John Prodromos festival. Maria-lena Bourbakis, smiling proudly as she grasped the hands of her niece and granddaughter, stepped from the circle after a particularly lively kalamatiano and explained the local tradition to a visitor. Bourbakis had the last word as she draped an arm around her niece.
Ferries run several times a week between the islands.
