Visa Run

Today we got to make a visa run to Rhodes! After getting up early to get a second coat of paint on the decks we were off to the ferry. After a bumpy ride, and lots of white paper bags being passed out, we arrived and immediately walked to the harbor where we were with Independence three years ago. We also made a stop into one of the grocery shops in the harbor and eyed a hunk of salami we would be coming back for! After another reminiscent stop at the gyro shop (the best gyros ever) we filled our day with some shopping, sipping on retsina, basically a lot of nothing. It was glorious and 4:30pm arrived much to fast. After a return to the harbor market we made our way back to the ferry dock with our haul of yummy goods. And luckily made it through Turkish customs with our wine, cheese and pork products still in hand! After a quick stop in town to watch the USA vs Algeria game we made our way back home where we proceeded to feast on our goods. We realized how relaxed we were and look forward to many more days like this.
