Ρόδος (Rhodes)

We spent a few days on Rhodes, one of the beautiful Greek islands. The beaches and coastal scenes were gorgeous! (Sorry, no beach pictures. Toplessness was rampant.) Below is a residential street in Rhodes City's old town. Apparently those who live there have to live like they did 100 years ago, but we felt air conditioning coming from a few windows. Below is the outside portion of our hotel room. We stayed on the top floor of the hotel (and had the entire floor to ourselves), which was really cool.

We visited a town called Lindos on the island, where the streets are cobblestone. There's also an acropolis after a hike 380 feet above the water. (Photos: acropolis; a view of Lindos village from the top; a view of the water from the top; and a street in Lindos)

So, jealous. I've always wanted to visit Greece. More so after seeing "Mamma Mia". Bet it was just beautiful. But it looks like it was hot. ;-)
