This is the very place where I recklessly threw an empty glass over my shoulder into the water on Christmas Eve 1976. I recognized it immediately but that was all. Today Greece closed all its restaurants, cafés, museums and archeological sites until at least 30th March. There are no declared cases of covid 19 in Crete yet.
Voici le lieu exact où j’ai jeté sans vergogne un verre vide par dessus l’épaule dans le port la veille de Noël en 1976. Je l’ai reconnu tout de suite mais c’était tout. Aujourd’hui la Grèce a fermé tous ces restaurants, cafés, musées et sites archéologiques jusqu’au 30 mars au plus tôt. Il n’y a pas encore de cas déclarés de covid 19 en Crète.

A beautiful view!
Our museums, schools, and libraries are closed now. Our universities are staying open, but shifting to online courses.
I think it’s the only safe course of action.
