Peggy’s Postcards: Chersonissos, Crete (Greece)

Here’s another postcard from Peggy’s Postcards and this one is from the beautiful islands of Greece. While I haven’t been to Crete itself, I have visited Tinos and Mykonos, which isn’t that far away. The Greek islands are really spectacular and definitely merit a revisit. I wonder how (little) they’ve changed since Anne sent this postcard some decades ago?

Dear Peggy, We’ve now reached Crete and it is a beautiful island. Unfortunately, we no have only five days left so we have to return to Athens to catch our plane soon. Greece is just great and the people so friendly. So far we have been to Corfu, Sparta, Geraki, Corinth, Nafplion and Athens. It has been quite a varied tour. I start at Strathclyde a week on Monday - I must say work doesn’t seem too inviting at the moment. I hope you have every success in the coming year. Don’t forget Scotland, so until we meet again, Yours, Anne.
