End of the season (for us, and only 2 nights left for them) at Galileo, our favorite bar/restaurant in the Old Harbor. Our friend Manolis in the dark distance.

Odd cloud in the east tonight, over Chania. Well, southeast, I guess.

Ροδωπος is hiding in front of a line of clouds this evening. Chania, Crete.

You’d think we’d be getting rain here in Chania, wouldn’t you? But apparently not. All these looking north from town.

Good morning, Chania. Same shot, different zoom

The sky was on fire tonight, in Austin.

This seemed like a newsworthy cherry. I mean, it's big, right? Also delicious.

Red sky at morning, here in Austin

4 from Austin tonight

Saw what Merlin says is a Monk Parakeet, native to Patagonia, but now alive and well in Austin, Texas, because apparently, in the 70s, enough escaped or were let go to form a colony. Pretty cool!

Saw F1, The Movie. They missed a great opportunity to do a B plot of Twins Separated at birth, with these two:

Goodnight for now, Chania home.

4 from up at Meskla, Sarakina gorge, Zourba (taverna Amelia)

The (now open) archaeological museum in Agios Nikolaos was amazing and, notwithstanding the driving and parking challenges of that town, worth every minute. We will return in the winter. We looked for Flint Dibble in the video on Azorias, but no luck.

Goodnight, close and far, Chania
