The old minaret adjacent to St Nikolaos church is a perfect reminder of the way the East met the West in the town I made my home, Chania, Crete, Greece.
The photographs I post all help to tell a part of a longer story that focuses on the town and its citizens, whether they are living there now, or have made their home in other parts of the world. As a newer resident, by writing about the town in this way, I am trying to put some order into the chaos that I seem to be confronted with.

Car crash
Shit happens.
Car accident down the road from St Luke's cemetery (no fatalities).
Oi veh. I'm relieved to read that you were not involved. Reminds me of a sign in America that a cemetery posted on their wall: "Drive carefully. We can wait."
!!! I hope the car is taken there because there is a repair workshop nearby and that the crash did not actually took place there...It looks pretty nasty and it would be outrageous if a crash of such force occurred in an urban environment.........If it did occur there, kids should start walking around in full armor! :-D
