Rhodes - Day 1

Wedding anniversary , our 4th year.

Started the night in Santorini, slept on the ferry ( sleeping bags), Rhodes in the morning. This ferry is newer and better than the previous one. These ferries are a new experience for both of us, luckily does not make us sea sick.

Love Rhodes/ Rodos. Arrived here with no expectations as we were planning to go to Crete but after talking to the travel agent realized it is too far from Turkey, our next destination.

The main city has an old town and a new town. There is a great walkway along the beach. The water has two shades of blue merging together , the sun is out. It feels like a holiday. The shops are trendier, people more dressed up.It is very different to Santorini. Both have their own charm.

Bought a bottle of Greek sparkling wine, olives, cheese crackers and thought of having a picnic , the chill in the night air had us scuttling to a restaurant .

Passed a lit up , beautiful Greek Orthodox church, evening mass was going on and saw numerous people go in and out lighting candles.

Great four years.
