Continuing the journey around the Greek islands, my family and I, aboard the Celebrity Equinox Cruise Ship headed to the gorgeous and unique island of Rhodes. Rhodes, the largest of Greeces Dodecanese island’s is southeast of Athens and just off the Anatolian coast of Turkey. While we were there we took a tour, by Jeep, through the interior mountainous area which is sparsely inhabited and covered with forests of pine and cypress trees. We traveled through small villages, visited a 15th century chapel, explored the historic Seven Springs and finally on to the Aegean sea for a BBQ lunch on the beach of Fanes. Once back in town we visited the Medieval city surrounded by medieval walls, this old part of Rhodes is the location of many interesting attractions of historical significance such as the Palace of the Master and the Archeological Museum.
