Remembering holiday moments


Stillwater

Recommended Posts

Took off from Tympaki westwards to Agia Galini, where you can see a monument to remember the flight of Dedalus and Ikarus that is suspected to have been done here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icarus

Towards the islands of Paximadi, a tour which is much easier in the sim than in RL. But they look so nice...

Enjoying Henrik Nielsens ships (sometimes even doubled), ...

... and climbing over Mires, Messara plain...

Once you managed to climb up the mountains, it is just an easy ride down into Heraklion.

What you can´t see in these pictures is the hospitality of the Cretan people, which is even more impressive than the sights.

Absolutely fantastic shots of this paradise, Gerold. :)

Top set and tour Gerold.

Beautiful photos too especially the beach shot.

A very picturesque island and nice to hear the locals are friendly.

The beach shot was also a dinner shot. Just a lovely atmosphere.

In some cases the reality is unbeatable. Other than that we can get very close, in a constant process of attempts, this is the work of Orbx and other developers.
Outstanding screenshots Gerold, thanks.

I second your words, we are getting closer and closer, and still it is just a taste before or after doing the real thing.
