... Justice , Kutice Antonin Scallia came around the bend and introduced himself to us our instructor for the day. I did not expect to like him, despite my conservative childhood and upbringing, but much to delight he was an arsenal of information and humor. He is also very charasmatic and his persuasive techniques are founded in th elaw and in his personality. but are magical just the same.

Our next Greek Island for our three week summer session was a ...

... I got lost a few times but I needed the exercise, so all was well.

The next day I quickly made my way through the New Town (more modern part - which is just like any other town in any other country) and then spent the rest of the day discovering the Old City (the Old Town as the locals now call it). It was fascinating!! I could have spent a week there! I made friends with a lovely old dog on the way, and to my surprise, found he faithfully followed me ...

... starboard side so we could make out the landmarks. When the weather eventually cleared we walked the short 500m to entrance to the Fort.

This was our second trip to Rhodes. Previously we hired a car and toured around the island taking in the ancient site of Lindos so we were planning to spend a lot more time in Old Town. Externally the fort is reminiscent of some other great fort ports like Dubrovnic and Tallin but once inside the town has very much is own ...

Another beautiful day. Sunny 78 degrees on the island of Rhodes. We travel to Lindos half way down the island. To see the Acropolis were Paul spoke to the Greeks. A long climb to the top with a view to forever. Just outstanding. Back to the boat early to catch some sun by the pool.

I am going to upload a couple of pics from yesterday on Myconos to give you an idea of the beauty here.

... recommened a place from a local, which turned out to be ok. Honestly, we've had better Mousakka in San Francisco, but the Greek Salad is pretty amazing. Who knew Cucumbers, tomatos, feta and olive oil could taste so good? We've tried to make our own using exactly the same ingredients, but somehow they manage to do it better.
Now we're off to the one-and-only Santorini!

... of little alleyways again and you realized that you had come back to where you started. It was fun and we spent about 4 hours in there and then walked back to the ship. Had a late lunch on the ship and went to our cabin to have our afternoon siesta and watched Get Smart on tv. We decided to have a day off the grog so watched the ship leave from deck 7 and headed to the Casino for a short time and then came home.

After a quick breakfast, we headed off to the port to catch our 9am ferry to Rhodes, but it looked like everyone else in Fethiye had the same idea. The boat was full of those annoying package holiday makers on a day trip to Rhodes.

After a rough ride, we bought our tickets to Athens (Rhodes to Athens €53 each, one way) and had the whole day to spend in Rhodes before our next ferry departed.

Rhodes was famous worldwide in the ancient world for the Colossus of Rhodes ...

... in the closed duty-free shop amidst glass-encased butterflies and was relieved to see that Rhodes Town is on the northern tip of the island. I knew we were going to dock here and I also knew that Turkish day trips ran to the northern coast.

Sleek Mercedes taxis cruised the Commercial Dock as we descended from the boat. We were hungry and we had to find a boat to take us across the water to Asia Minor. I knew that we had missed the daily hydrofoil because I had seen it from ...
