What I've learned in Greece, Rhodes - Part IV
#1 You haven't lived until you've been in a bar full of Dutch tourists trying to sing along to "It's Raining Men".
#2 Apparently, one of the ancient wonders of the world - The Colossus of Rhodes - used to stand here. I think that's pretty awesome. Pictures on that later. Updated: Here you go - apparently, the antelopes indicate the actual location:
#3 If you're like us and you get lost in the middle of the Old City, you may stumble upon a fish restaurant where you encounter a lovely, eccentric owner, who invites you to the kitchen to view that day's catch, before having the best meal you've had in Greece while surrounded by locals. Once you leave, don't hope to find it again. No matter how hard you try.
#4 Sunstroke is not fun. Thankfully, it was mild.
#5 Considering how I'm viewed with some amusement by some locals and expats, I'm informed Americans don't visit Rhodes that much unless they're with a cruise, which I'm not. They should.
More lessons and pictures to come...
