You may participate in a wine and spirit tasting session (optional) at the monastery’s cellar.
Then we pay a visit to one of the main attractions in eastern Crete, that is, the protected Vai palm forest. It is unique in Europe and is located next to one of the most beautiful beaches of the island. There will be plenty of time for you to enjoy swimming and the rare beauty of the landscape.

You actually make it appear so easy along with your presentation but I to find this topic to be actually something which I feel I would by no means understand. It kind of feels too complicated and very broad for me. I am having a look forward in your next post, I’ll try to get the grasp of it! http://www.tlovertonet.com/
