The Old Venetian Port in Chania is lovely. Starbucks to the rescue, they have napkins… Adding wipes to our day bag from now on. Just down the walkway from fast food coffee, was a public water closet which was out of paper. To the second cat which found a cozy spot on the stoop of a clothing store. Well, when needing to find a water closet, a long line is not the solution. Perfect! Starbucks has restrooms! Think again, paying patrons only and the code is on receipt. We were casually walking around and spotted the first cat of the day near… Are you kidding me, a Starbucks. It was still relatively early and not all the shops were open yet on this Sunday morning. The bus stop was easy to remember, just find the statue of ΔΑΕΚΑΛΟΓΤΑΝΝΗΣ ( Daskalogiannis), a wealthy ship owner who led a Cretan revolt against Ottoman rule in the 18th century. The bus dropped us off at a bus stop a short walk from the Old Venitian Port area. Given the bus was about 20 minutes you figure that’s about how long the tendering process would have taken to the Old Port. Docking in Souda is better for Port Adventures since there is no tendering bottleneck. There was another cruise ship tendering to the Old Port. The Old Port about 20 minutes away is where we were headed for the day. There are two port areas in Chania, we were docked at the Port of Souda.
