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.
Amazing; I found Marks & Spencer in Chania in May - great location, great prices, great sizes! I live in Ireland, and although there are many M&S stores around the country, there isn't one in the City where I live; so the novelty didn't wear off before I bought lovely clothes, then lugged them all the way home to Ireland!
Marx & Lenin's would be more catchy...
ReplyDeleteYou better go into hiding...
ReplyDeleteIf we plan for a visit to Crete. Where is the best place to go for me and my wife at the island and eventually Chania
ReplyDeleteNever thought you would have a Marks&Sparks - my sense of the size of Hania is very off.
ReplyDeleteHow are their prices?
ReplyDeleteαυτοί θα μας φάνε το δώρο
ReplyDeleteI guess MS have a big glassy window that could create some pretty awesome reflections of the real landscape of Hania!
ReplyDeleteIf your sister is at Elefsina I'm waiting you here for a visit...!
ReplyDeleteWe have Macy's (of New York parade fame) here in Honolulu! Aloha-
ReplyDeleteWe have Marks & Spencer here in Canada, but I'm surprised you have it in Hania!
