Not such a tight space for our tiny boat, but you should see some of the ships that squeeze through the Corinth Canal. Yikes! And, thankfully, we sailed during their off season, so we had ample time to enjoy the scenery. Definitely worth the shock factor to see some bigger ships try to get through here, though. Check these out. 🙂 What do you think? Would you cruise the canal?

Fort Fun
I confess I’m not a history buff, but when I encounter intriguing places like this Turkish fort in Crete, my writer’s brain fires off endless questions. How many people lived inside these walls? Were they mostly all soldiers or were citizens allowed? How many romances developed between the soldiers and the people who lived nearby? What did their living quarters look like? What did they do on a normal day? What kind of clothes/uniforms did they wear? How much time did it take to build this fort and for what purpose?
What about you? What questions come to your mind? Do you enjoy visiting historical sites?
