This is the twentyseventh of thirty photographs from our visit to Crete in September/October 2006.
I have already published a different set of sixty photographs on my website at Crete 2006. You'll also find there some accounts of our visit and links to relevant websites.

@Monkey in the Jungle: It is a shrine to St Nicholas. You will find them in all sorts of shapes and sizes all over Crete - most houses seem to have one in their garden. We saw places like our typical garden centres where you could buy ready-made ones, but I think most people make their own. People put small items of religious significance inside and light candles.
