CLICK TO SEE TODAYS RIDE
Breakfast on the balcony, then we rode west to Souda, turned around and headed east to Preveli.This beach is the beach you see on most posters encouraging you to visit Greece. Beautiful clean stream, backing up into a shallow lake lined with Palm trees (hence it‘s other name ~ Palm Beach)
Sandy freshwater lake on one side, 40 feet of sand, then gorgeous gentle sea.
Oh, and it‘s usually filled with nudes.
Today Tom was the only nudie, and that was just for a quick dip to wash the sweat off!
Today we saw a group (5 ~ 7) of Lammergeier (bearded) Vultures soaring 50 ft overhead. Extremely rare, and extremely huge, they were awesome to see. We followed that with a pair of Peregrine falcons high in the cliff.
Dinner on our balcony tonight with bottle of red to match the sunset.
Delicious!
