Heraklion in Crete was our port on day 9. The Boutari winery tour was great. The winery
movie was odd.
We picked up a couple of bottles of Greek wine to drink on the
ship. Then we were on to the Palace of Knossos, which we decided Allison would
like. It turns out that the Minoans were ahead of the curve in terms of gender
equity. Evans did a nice job promoting the site (and the island) and at the
same time making somewhat of a mess of the excavation and reconstruction.

Once back to the ship we enjoyed the Boutari rose
("Poze"). A little dizzy, yet
very nice, dry, and quite aromatic.
