Rhodes

July 3 

Walking day in the old walled city.  DJ declined.  The cobblestones, though interesting,  really would have done in her bad ankle.

Because a "No Swimming" sign was posted on the beach, we only put our fingers in the Aegean Sea. 

We found the Archeological Museum, housed the Hospital of the Knights of St. John. [Why does the hospital need cannon balls? Mary wants to know.]

I found a place to mail a postcard. We found a gelato shop and the Library, together.  Mary says every library should have a gelato shop just across the street.

The gelato we bought at a different shop, because we wanted the handmade kind.  HOWEVER, we were not impressed:  the angulia (watermelon) was a 2, the fruitti de bosco (raspberry) was a 3, and the giocci (hazelnut) was only a 3.

We spent the afternoon writing this deathless prose.
