Rhodes
We've arrived in Rhodes for a short one-night rest before continuing our multi-day migration from Greece to Turkey. Tomorrow we're headed for Olympos with the goal of staying at a hostel IN A TREE! That's right, we're staying in Turkish Treehouses.
Rhodes is super cool looking so far. The "old town" is the center of activity, and it's entirely surrounded by a medieval stone wall and a ton of fortifications. I'm not sure the exact history of the place, but I think it was some sort of outpost during the Crusades. In any case, the entire city is extremely well preserved, and there are stone arches and crenellated roofs everywhere you look.
We're about to strike out to explore some of the more interesting looking alleys and passageways, before buying our ferry tickets over to Turkey later on this afternoon.
