Rhodes Half Day: Day 10

Today is another travel day!

We got up this morning for our first day of pure free time until the afternoon. I had scrambled eggs for breakfast and a latte. Idk what the green stuff was on top of my eggs but I was not a huge fan.
Once we were finished with breakfast, we moved our luggage to the storage area and left for the day to do what we had decided was the most important last night: SHOPPING!!!

We walked to the old town by the mid evil moat and castle that we went to yesterday and got to the shopping area.
I spent some money on some souvenirs for both myself and others. Today’s souvenir recipients are Nick and Maga. I got myself some potholders and some olive oil and spices, as well as a pretty ring.
I also replaced my lost sunglasses so I feel like a real human again.

We shopped for quite a while (like 3 hours) and then had to head back to our hotel to get our things and get on the bus to go to the Rhodes airport. On the way to the hotel, we passed a bodega where we spotted the very first Dr. Pepper of this whole trip. No one bought one, but I didn’t because I still had like 3 drinks to finish before we got to the airport.

Once we left the hotel, we drove along the coast line of Rhodes…. The water y’all. I’ve been to the Bahamas and beaches in Florida and the Great Lakes… but this water is gorgeous. It is just so crazy that you can look out over the horizon and see the mountains of Turkey and realize that we’re so close to other countries (we are not far from Alexandria, Egypt)

We eventually made it to the airport, and I had my first gyro. IT WAS SO GOOD!!!

We made it to our next city, and here’s a hint: it isn’t said the way it’s spelled.Read more
