So very early in the morning we boarded an
island hopper to go from
Athens to Rhodes. We were all sad that Constantine
and/or Harry were not going to be there to meet us and drive for us, but new
adventures awaited. The principal city on the island of Rhodes is Rhodes – not
at all confusing. In long ages gone by there was supposed to be a giant statue
that guarded the harbor: the Colossus. There is nothing on the island that overtly
points to any ruins of this bygone wonder and although I knew we wouldn’t see
it, I was vaguely disappointed.
