2019 Jewel of the Seas Greek Isles Cruise - A Day in Rhodes Part 1

 October 7 found us in Rhodes, another new port for us. Unlike Crete though I wasn’t really sure what to expect. It was hard to gage a feeling from photos I’d seen online. I also didn’t really realize just how big this walled old city actually is!


We once again awoke with the sunrise and had plans to be first off the ship.

When the golden lighting hits just right:

There’s a little beach immediately when you walk out of the gates. There were 2 little fishermen out and I was captivated by their early morning peaceful work. I stopped to talk with one of them and he showed me his catch so far. 2 fish he said were called moomoorie.

Nate being the navigator decided we would enter through the 3rd gate and make our way backwards.
