Day 92 - Rhodes, Greece

 

Date:  April 10

 

Location:  Day 92 – Rhodes, Greece

 

Next Port:  Naxos, Sicily, Italy, April 12

 

Quick Summary: We spent a relaxing day exploring the old walled city of Rhodes – with no tours, no guides and no museums.  We then enjoyed a “Big Fat Greek” party on ship before dinner.

 

Report:  Today was a lazy one compared to the hectic pace we set these past several days.  The Voyager docked about 10 a.m. in the beautiful port of Rhodes, the fourth largest Greek island nestled between the Turkish coast and the other Greek Islands. We had company in the port with two other large cruise ships also enjoying the beautiful day. We had a chilly start to the day that warmed up to a perfect Mediterranean stop.  We joined Larry and Dodi on the shuttle bus to the old town where we spent some time shopping the open-air bazaar shops and jewelry stores. The best part of the day was the relaxing Greek lunch overlooking the activity below.  Wine, beer, mousaka, pizza, gelato…what more could one ask for!

 

We walked back to ship where we enjoyed a beautiful sail-away, followed by a ship-board “Big Fat Greek” party, followed by dinner with Barb and Jim.  Another fun day.
