First of three Greek Islands: Rhodes

Rhodes used to house one of the Seven Wonders, the Colossus of Rhodes...however, it has long been destroyed. It would have been great to see the ship go under such statue at the harbor.

Getting off the boat...it's so BIG!!!

On land, there was not whole lot of stuff to do other than walking within the walls of the Medieval section of the City. There were shops everywhere which reminded me of Mykonos (was there back in 1999). Judging from the merchandise, I should be able to get the same stuff at Mykonos, our next port stop. Thus, I held off my spending addiction.

Streets within the Castle Walls of Rhodes

I guess after Egypt, every port stop thereafter is just not as exciting. Can't wait to return to Mykonos tomorrow...walk the streets and witness its magnificent sunset...

Back on the boat...when are we leaving?

It's sunset...we still haven't left yet :(
