Cool Coffee
Already twenty-four hours on the sunny island of Crete in Greece. After a good sleep, it's time to sip cool frappés whilst guarding our cookies from the relentless attack of pigeons.
Yesterday was a very long day, a 3am start in Amsterdam followed by a 6.20 am, three-and-a-half hour flight from Schipol to Heraklion. Arriving at our hotel, a refreshing swim in the mosaic hotel pool and friendly greetings from the hotel staff rejuvenated our spirits.
Dinner by the sea of: tzatziki, saganaki, calamari and a Greek Salad with a finale of the local firewater - raki, accompanied by luscious watermelon.

Spring Delight
Below our favourite coffee place: Spinnato, in Palermo, which dates back to 1860. A lovely place to sit for morning coffee, an aperitif or to while away an afternoon.
Alongside the news stand, with its giant yo-yo-like planters.

Bagels & Beans
New in the last few weeks to the centre of Groningen,
is Bagels and Beans. This new eatery is part of a new franchise, with a total
of twenty others so far throughout the Netherlands.
The interior is painted ochre yellow with images of
bagel and beans. Seating is wooden chairs and tables, plus there is a large
central table. There are magazines available in racks if you plan to kick
back and relax.
On the tables you can find signs painted on oblong
wooden bats with exclamations such as ‘Thirst’ on them which can be waived at
the waiting staff, to attract attention and get service.
Drinks include all kinds of coffee such as
mochachino, as well as all kinds of fresh fruit juices, including an anti-stress
one containing Royal Jelly.
Bagels come with a variety of fillings,
including cream cheese, and the pastrami one (which my friend Kim
had) came with cream cheese on the side in little dish.
They have a great selection of cakes, including fig
cake and Brownies the size of a block of flats!
