Brushing up on artist

OUT to Fodele, west of Heraklion for a day out with American friends to the birthplace of painter El Greco. It's a quiet village, very traditional with buildings lining the small river that feeds the lush area.
  Kn own also for their quality oranges and lemons, we have a friend who runs a taverna there, so it was a visit to catch up, see the El Greco museum and spend quality time in a friendly village. The old ladies of the village still demonstrate their mecrame skills, making intricate designs, working in a traditional manner off the back of an old chair. It's interesting to see them at work, usually surrounded by young relatives as their pass on their techniques.
  The museum is packed with a well displayed selection of the great mans paintings, but obviously not original, but quality photographs placed on light-frames, whichshow  every details.
