    Nope not Plakias.
    You are a wee bit closer than Rethymnon.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,227 ✭✭✭✭jmayo

    You have the right idea, but it is to the East.

    BTW it is a good place to stop for a drink.

    Yes it is.

    You beat GBX who was already very close with Pale.

    I presume the Lion's mouth was the giveaway, espeically when added to drinking reference ?

    BTW it is on main road south from Rethimno to Agia Galini.

    Sorry about that! I'd been working my way along that road. I'm having network issues here so you fire ahead there GBX.

    Well done!

    That has to be the one that had me frustrated the most. Day one I had figured the bank on the right was a branch of the Piraeus Bank, but damned if I could find it, because the Piraeus Bank's webside Greek section was down over the weekend... aarrrrrgh. :D

    I thought it was a Renault dealership, wasted quite a bit of time on that :o

    That was first (and will undoubtedly be the last) time I've ever recognised something right off the bat on this thread :D

    Will have a hunt around for a new one in the next few mins.

    And I just thought no one could be ar**ed over the weekend.
    Saying that i wasn't in any shape to monitor on Saturday evening :D:D

    I had nothing to do with bank websites being down. ;)
    I didn't think it would be so hard as it is on a busy route across the island.

    Granted there is a more famous church/monastery in the village that appears on lots of links.

    Ehh look up lions head and Crete, it comes up.
    It is a very famous fountain, hence the previous reference to a place to drink.
