It is relatively mild here in UK and I suspect we are having similar temperatures as you are having. I assume there will be a fair amount of snow on the tops on Crete now. Overall probably more wintry with you than us right now.
Merry Christmas

How old is Charlie, did you bring him with you or is he Greek? Sorry, probably being too nosey but lovely that he enjoys a swim - sounds a perfect pooch !
Charlie is 11 so 77 in dog years but still bounds around like a puppy, yes we brought him with us by road as he would have hated flying and big noise and he runs and hides, it can be a bit embarrasing around easter here as people are always randomly setting off fireworks and we have to go and rescue him from under the nearest table he can find, often to the bewilderment of the people having lunch or dinner at that table.
He has made a lot of friends around here, we pass people in the road and they say "hello Charlie" and we haven't a clue who they are ! People remember him not us , but its all good and he is pretty well behaved and we take him with us most times we go out.
