The music was a constant pounding of heavy base, dance music. Mostly in English: Rasputin, Lets go Barbie, Hot Hot Hot, YMCA, anything you can jump up and down to. Most of the participants also had whistles that they would blow (sometimes in time to the music, mostly just randomly) and some had horns and things that squirted out foam. It was constant movement. Constant noise and a constant stream of humanity jostling and pushing along the sidewalk behind me.</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkzK2UL9UDH-J__dVrwYMktzoeGjzbzkX5ImZSShwPNoEle0074nwnQRQcq7QGrL2-h1vDpZ_0GS7aZNL77P62jzyBK8tMhg5txmA3xhCt9xc3rEz0kll-NhwHKyarxqWiQMz5nWgqCOT6roQcVLSMw69jSDOZYXad1pqT9uaaSWF_JLgzSZDoUmkjllc/s3827/P1220440.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3827" data-original-width="2960" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkzK2UL9UDH-J__dVrwYMktzoeGjzbzkX5ImZSShwPNoEle0074nwnQRQcq7QGrL2-h1vDpZ_0GS7aZNL77P62jzyBK8tMhg5txmA3xhCt9xc3rEz0kll-NhwHKyarxqWiQMz5nWgqCOT6roQcVLSMw69jSDOZYXad1pqT9uaaSWF_JLgzSZDoUmkjllc/s320/P1220440.JPG" width="248" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The groups were usually lead by a flag bearer.<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><p><br /></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnrxNu-G9LS_YTkkInJf4PaQ5sZW0si0jCtj75fFgRIR720Zv4erK26LJIAKMnAK_YC-WkyAq_PeD9PmhxEJAuSwy8o9cTnTdBeJ8XMDmieQ3hZrSduv2xx3QBqGdokADMIi9P3yhnVKoeYD4B2v6KxKMW4IJIotAri0wDMwUnrbNaXJpzZTNlLYrhf24/s4896/P1220441.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3672" data-original-width="4896" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnrxNu-G9LS_YTkkInJf4PaQ5sZW0si0jCtj75fFgRIR720Zv4erK26LJIAKMnAK_YC-WkyAq_PeD9PmhxEJAuSwy8o9cTnTdBeJ8XMDmieQ3hZrSduv2xx3QBqGdokADMIi9P3yhnVKoeYD4B2v6KxKMW4IJIotAri0wDMwUnrbNaXJpzZTNlLYrhf24/s320/P1220441.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">I had seen a rack of these in a store front in the old town.

Venetian Morozini, an architect who had also constructed many other
public works in the town. According to historical accounts, there were
other three previous loggias before this one, but for various occasions,
they were not functional until this last was constructed.</i></p>
<p><i>The Loggia was a place for the Venetian noblemen to gather and
discuss the local economic and social issues. It also worked as a Club,
in modern terms. This is a rectangular building with an open adit on the
ground floor. The ground floor was built following the Doric style,
that is austere and severe, and the upper floors had a more Ionian
style, with ornaments and nice decorations.</i></p>
<p><i>When the Turks conquered Crete, they made the Loggia their
administrative center. When Crete became autonomous in 1898, the Loggia
was in bad state and would face the danger to collapse. The works for
its renovation started in 1915 but they were interrupted by the Second
World War in 1940.</i></p>
<p><i>Today, the Loggia of Heraklion has been fully renovated and houses
the Town Hall. In fact, it is considered as the most elegant Venetian
building in Crete and in 1987, it received the Europa Nostra award as
the best-renovated monument of the country</i>. from greeka.com</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_VmhdLm7ngcXWxKYq3dmdpuLGhKV2RkIKMethwsvsgV6eq0p8A9F8PbLtRa0aWA7mGFEO7q1RHrxR_drUATZsaYz5KFyOMGKJ228DoilpPfv2A2lmufJGMOZ7AQPtjeH4nTKoCdRI-k8GX349v1rwYBN5QOWdx4WoRwX7eqg_3oqwAyVgGEaYxPsV3II/s3916/P1210816.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3047" data-original-width="3916" height="249" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_VmhdLm7ngcXWxKYq3dmdpuLGhKV2RkIKMethwsvsgV6eq0p8A9F8PbLtRa0aWA7mGFEO7q1RHrxR_drUATZsaYz5KFyOMGKJ228DoilpPfv2A2lmufJGMOZ7AQPtjeH4nTKoCdRI-k8GX349v1rwYBN5QOWdx4WoRwX7eqg_3oqwAyVgGEaYxPsV3II/s320/P1210816.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Just the prize for the treasure hunt was on display<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><p></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKQVs4Er21dqfXJVFqKbCBUgs75NjFc_reUPlbpZJ83kdCFYaxwro3X7UVgMNgfd_KVoFx0aIaLXBRVNT4_TXVMnt32ScIbQk4ia_um7eZZwX3RArdeGsBSGYQFkV1bGBDICidtUFfwGqgsD_Bu3Ne5PrFSZHn6lVP5gwVf9qPZA2I-S8Levps3VG43hc/s4896/P1210817.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3672" data-original-width="4896" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKQVs4Er21dqfXJVFqKbCBUgs75NjFc_reUPlbpZJ83kdCFYaxwro3X7UVgMNgfd_KVoFx0aIaLXBRVNT4_TXVMnt32ScIbQk4ia_um7eZZwX3RArdeGsBSGYQFkV1bGBDICidtUFfwGqgsD_Bu3Ne5PrFSZHn6lVP5gwVf9qPZA2I-S8Levps3VG43hc/s320/P1210817.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">and the security guard said that the treasure hunt was to learn the history of Heraklion.<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtuLmt_3mgxZKVGuiyLdv-YetD30imU3dH8FRIQVFxpgcN9GRHSLbPS6GIWfJJPv5LoY5DntBrXNeJD2uAySF-uub04n9hrF3yPzmmepdVTbKtDrzCQYy8OKkGFw969r_GUVR4vXlcBnKxSwj43LD2ZuJveNZxkA5lVNgRirnjS_llSeohXkJGyeG5xN4/s3454/P1210726.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3144" data-original-width="3454" height="291" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtuLmt_3mgxZKVGuiyLdv-YetD30imU3dH8FRIQVFxpgcN9GRHSLbPS6GIWfJJPv5LoY5DntBrXNeJD2uAySF-uub04n9hrF3yPzmmepdVTbKtDrzCQYy8OKkGFw969r_GUVR4vXlcBnKxSwj43LD2ZuJveNZxkA5lVNgRirnjS_llSeohXkJGyeG5xN4/s320/P1210726.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">We were pretty tired and<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVDhyHOi6zu4uadwtGWTeP0CQGpKPJi3uQ_9LjvBORFJbDWdTEYUX-O8JGxDSqnYioqybGO1evBUGx9ar8DkFwJmu0-7Hyy2rTxeX8pz_tc4NfUcwxArYu-tGXOcl-8tiMrS1suRnvRPJmFh-gFjbrhzvfKGTJKBFQpkE4wsEFxzs3VjMFefSXDk5axI4/s4896/P1210824.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4896" data-original-width="3672" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVDhyHOi6zu4uadwtGWTeP0CQGpKPJi3uQ_9LjvBORFJbDWdTEYUX-O8JGxDSqnYioqybGO1evBUGx9ar8DkFwJmu0-7Hyy2rTxeX8pz_tc4NfUcwxArYu-tGXOcl-8tiMrS1suRnvRPJmFh-gFjbrhzvfKGTJKBFQpkE4wsEFxzs3VjMFefSXDk5axI4/s320/P1210824.JPG" width="240" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">had to fortify ourselves with an ice cream cone.<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br />Sweetonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17837034781856556567noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4598160589534263056.post-86919899872416789642024-03-06T06:52:00.000-08:002024-03-06T06:52:25.945-08:00Crete - Heraklion, Carnival treasure hunt<p> I needed to get the car back to Heraklion airport by 11am (or they would charge me for an extra day) so we were out of the apartment and on the road before 9am.

Icarus ignored Daedalus's instructions not to fly too close to the sun,
causing the beeswax in his wings to melt. Icarus fell from the sky,
plunged into the sea, and drowned.
