Don't get me wrong.. I do like Greece, or rather, Crete, the island I was on. Found myself in a small town, Rethymno with iteresting streets to explore, a nice beach where I spent my afternoon just lounging around and a memorable 18km hike through Europe's longest Gorge - The Samarian Gorge which left me aching all over...
But, thinking of my travelling time to and fro Crete is laughable. I took 32 hours to get from Crete back to St Gallen. That means it is more than 1 day on the road. Let's detail how I did it..
28th July 2007
1500 - 1600 : Takes bus from Rethymno to Chania
1600 - 1730 : Figured out how to get from Chania to Souda, the port where I was supposed to take my ferry from
1730 - 1900 : Sat around, had dinner and rotted while waiting for boarding
1900 - 0600: Was on the overnight ferry back to Pireaus, the port at Athens.
29th July 2007
0700 - 0800: Bus from Pireaus to Athens airport
0800 -1030 : Rotted at the Athens airport while waiting for check in
1220 - 1355 : Flight from Athens to Milan Malpensa
1410 - 1500 : Baggage collection (There was no customs check at the airport. So lax can!)
1510 - 1600 : Bus from Milan Malpensa to Centrale Stazione (Main Train Station)
1625 - 2105 : Train from Milan to Zurich
2110 - 2215 : Train from Zurich to St Gallen
