Naxos

Next island, Naxos.

We arrived late in the day with just enough time to see the sun set.


The next day we got on our bike and went exploring.

The ancient temple of Demeter

Lunch under the grapes

Climbing Mt. Zeus

The view from as high as we were willing to walk

 One of the many beautiful towns on the island.

Apollonas, the pretty town where we decided to run out of petrol. It's a long story but thanks to a friendly Swiss couple we made it home.

Naxos town.

The Portara, part of an unfinished (not ruined) temple to Apollo.

To get there, we had to cross this causeway under rather wavy conditions.

And then cross back again
