We went on holiday not long ago to a little village called Bali in Crete, Greece. It is a small quite town and is absolutly beautiful. The weather was hot - 35oC and was getting hotter as we left.
This is the view from our balcony.
The appartments were fantastic and even had a sea view.
There is a small harbour with some tavernas and local supermarkets around it. You could walk from one end of the town to the next in around 30 minutes (more like an hour in the heat! You had to stop for a cool drink every 5 minutes!)
There are 4 or 5 small beaches in the village but the one closest to our appartment was the nicest. There were 6 tavernas all around it, and we tried all of them! The food was fantastic and very cheep. I did not have a bad meal the whole time i was there.
And of course no holiday would be complete without seeing a few cats - and there were plenty of them. The morning we arrived, we saw a chocolate point! Every taverna we were in had a different colony of cats who were fed by the tourists! The silver tabby below was feral and heavily pregnant. We can only assume the ginger male is the father!
They were kissing under an apricot tree!
Some of the cats were feral but a lot of them were friendly, until you gave them food. once they were fed they would move onto the next tourist that would feed them!!
We had a fantastic time. Beautiful part of the world.
