Rhodes GR
April in Rhodes; the Sun is too warm for a jacket; the air is too cool for shirt sleeves.
'Tis the season of layers.
Flashback to Frankfurt Airport
Well-connected within Europe, multiple flights/day to/from S.F.
Along with Paris CDG, this is my most frequent entry & exit point to Europe.
A windy afternoon in Rhodes.
At the harbors of Rhodes Town.
Not much to say about these.
The images speak for themselves.
By now, everybody who is interested recognizes Mandraki Harbor.
Movie buffs might recognize the little fort from The Guns Of Navarone.
In real life, it is a probable location of the ancient Colossus of Rhodes.

Switzerland.
In the medieval Old City.
Our own cozy equivalent of Rome's Spanish Stairs. :)
The least conspicuous gate through the Old City walls. Near the tourist harbor.
An arch from the (ruined) Church of the Virgin of the Burg,
a scenic landmark near the Tourist Harbor.
A short street of cafes and fashion stores in the New Town.
An Old City homeowner offers some of the street cats a bed at night.
