Some people, when they are annoyed at someone, say \u2018go jump in a lake!\u2019 If someone asked us to have done it this morning, we wouldn\u2019t have when we went to a lake this afternoon, even though we had a chance. This kind of reminds me of a poem that I had memorized a while back about a fat cat who sits that way every day just to say come out and play to the nice mice in the mouse house in the small hole by the hall floor. It is entitled, \u2018I wouldn\u2019t.\u2019<\/p>\n
Back to our travels, not the adventures of a fat cat: the lake that we went to today is one of the largest freshwater reserves on the whole island of Crete. Before going to the lake, we didn\u2019t do anything except for sit around our living room staring vacantly at walls. In the afternoon, we went to the lake. In the evening, we went to dinner at Taverna Dionysos for the second time.<\/p>\n
The lake was more than I expected. I expected a bitter cold tiny pond with icecaps in the corners and it to be snowing, even on this tropical island. Funny, right? This place was magnificent. It had a clear bottom about 8 feet down all the way around the edge and it had lots of tourists plying around in little paddle boats.\u00a0 We eventually left after oohing and aahing from a taverna parking lot that, to us, doubled as a viewpoint.<\/p>\n
