Day 28 – May 27 2010 – Iraklion Internet and spin class

After yesterday’s completely full day, I strangely got a wild hair to arise early and head ashore to the port of Iraklion on the island of Crete. I didn’t know much about this little place, but I had a few hours here (from 8:30 am until 11 am) to go in search of internet and adventures. I didn’t make it too far, just off the boat and into the terminal building where there was free internet at a coffee shop. So I set up shop outside on the patio, dodging the chain smokers and ordered up the closest thing to a coffee (as Americans know it), which is a Nescafé with lots of milk and sugar. It’s pretty nasty for someone who only takes coffee with half a packet of Splenda or Raw Cane sugar. I got some emailing done and worked on downloading some music in preparation for my next gig in Oregon this summer. On my way back on the boat, I got an incredible Cheese Pie pastry from another shop and put that right away into the belly. MMM!

Inspired by my morning pastry, I decided today was the day to begin my spin classes. I had spoken to Steven, the personal trainer on the boat and he said I would be welcome to take the classes if they weren’t full. It was such a great idea and I met up with Andrew from the cast and we spun our hearts out! It was really awesome and I’m totally ready to do it again! Not much else besides more eating doing laundry for the show tomorrow night. I did take some lovely photos of the sunset from the Garden Cafe...
