Summing it all up.
 

May 05 - Car trip

This was a rented car that took us around the island, down the West coast, across the island, up the East coast and then across to Ixia were we stayed.

To the left, our very professional and friendly receptionist, Nectaria.

To the right, our rental car, a cute Hyundai from Korea.

Library along the road on the East coast.

And typical bars in the small villages crowding the road along the water front. Zorbas is this one.

Newly built houses along the sea front.

Nice, but stony beaches.

The Kamiros Ruins where the EU and Greek flags are flown.

The ruins proper. These are also called the Pompeii of Rhodes.

Then at Kamiros of today, we had our breakfast by the sea at a local fish restaurant. Delicious.

And as always, flowers all over the show. As here by the table area of the restaurant.

The fresh cod from the sea was divine. Not too expensive either.

A little of the domestic animal life, goats along side the road.

And olive groves were dotted all over the landscape.

Road signs are nice to use as a navigation mark of our photos. Knowing where we took which photos.

And roadside chapels or memorials was a typical sight of this Greek orthodox island.

And a quick peep at the sea while passing by.

Interesting stone layers that the road cut through.

The Monolithos castle built by the Crusaders in Medieval time.

The castle on top.

Quite impressive it is.

And on the top, a chapel.

And Martin on top with the view towards the North-West.

A whole in the wall of the ruins.

And on to the road again. Kattavia is one of the Southernmost towns of Rhodes.

Lovely flowers along the road.

And it does rain. This is a storm drain picking up the water when it falls in the hills.

Lindos on the Eastern shores are a white, popular holiday resort.

With a lovely harbor below.

And the season hasn't started yet. A little too cold so early in the season.

And back on the road. Rodos is also the capital of the island of Rhodes (English spelling).

A glimpse of the sea before heading inland towards the 7 springs which in Greek is Epta Piges.

The diner is situated fantastically among the trees and the springs.

Martin in the woods.

The dam that keep some of the water in the creek.

Martin having a quiet beer among the trees.

And four generations of owner. Great grand- and granddad on the wall, while father and son still kicking in the front.

Peacock is a part of the attraction.

And chapels along the roads are every where.

And big ones too.  

The next day was our last day on Rhodes.
