Day trip to Greece
Aug 19, 2007

Yesterday we bought our tickets for a day trip to Kos, Greece, which is about an hour away from Bodrum by ferry. This morning we got up and out the door by 8am so that we could make the 9:30 launch. It's a complicated business going from Turkey to Greece ...

... so well populated that it managed to send 30 ships to the Trojan War. Egyptian Pharaoh Ptolemy II was born here benefiting Kos' trading enormously during that dynasty's reign. However its most famous export was Hippocrates - the 'Father of Medicine' - who ...

Time for some real Greek Island action - We caught the Ferry over and had 5 hours to spend on the island. 8 of us hired a car and 2 scooters. We would have had only scooters but the hire places wouldn't accept an Australian drivers license. I was gutted ...

... the 2nd time I had to cancel Chios. It seems that CHIOS does not want us. (ha ha) But tell me why do you need a visa from Greece? Do I need a visa to drop off to Turkey? When I was at Kos and visited Bodrum in May it was no need for a visa. Let me know. ...

I was mistaken when telling you that I did not a visa to get to Kos. Indeed we needed a visa, but it only took us 2 minutes, probably this is the reason I had forgot all about it. So is Kusandasi opposite Samos. I wonder if it is beautiful as Cesme ...
