Symi to Rhodes
Back from Rhodes. Lots done, lots to do and not much time to do them this morning, so not much text here but a few photos. Let’s start with the journey there. On a Friday, the boat comes in at 7.30 and leaves at 7.45, so not too much of an early start. The weekend was probably the first good weather for weeks, no rain, not windy and so the boat was busy with foot passengers and cars. We walked down from the village and along the side of the harbour to the new jetty, queued to pick up our tickets, by which time the boat was in, so walked straight on and went to sit outside on the top deck for the views. The Blue Star Patmos has six cafes that I can think of, plus a restaurant and a self-service which are open at various times. A coffee and a bottle of water saw us across a calm sea, and before you know it, you’re there. More on this trip tomorrow, but for now, I need to catch up on admin and emails and other bits and pieces I didn’t get around to yesterday while I get back into the usual routine following the short holiday.
