Rockin' it in Rhodes

July 24, 2012

Living in the medieval town of Rhodes for three nights was incredible.  And now I know why all the streets are paved with pebbles . . .  it feels like a foot massage while walking.  The town was scenic, the beaches better and a trip to the local water park crazy!!!  We made it to Santorini at 2 a.m. last night on our ferry to start checking out the famed sunsets of the island.

The hydrofoil ferry we took from Bodrum to Rhodes . . . faster than Grease Lightening!

Outside the Old Town of Rodos.

 Jill and I and 100 pounds of luggage making our way into the inner city.

 Our awesome hotel the Pink Elephant.

 Jill and I inside the Alm's House in the Old Town.

 I feel like Robin Hood!

 See . . . a built in foot massage!

 Looking inside Old Town from one of the many gates.

 Best Beach Ever!!! Lindos - a quick bus trip away.

 Our vacation from our vacation - the waterpark!

 The MOAT!

 We arrived in Fira, Santorini and hopped on some hot wheels as soon as we could . . .

 ...and headed over to Kamari for some beaching.

 Why aren't there wandering massage therapists in Livermore???

 The first sunset of Santorini.

 Just rubbing it in now suckas!

 Ahhh . . .

 It's even pretty when it's dark out!

Check out my olive oil based hazlenut gelato!!!  (At the best rated gelatoria in Santorini!)
