A Fortress as Our Backyard

So happy this place is quiet and we are protected from the bars and cafes in town by a fortress! While I was feeling under the weather and writing the blog, Mike worked on odds and ends from our project list. In the afternoon, we escaped the heat on the boat and sat in the shaded courtyard just across from us. It’s amazing to think about the history of this place and the events that have occurred in the exact spot where we are relaxing and sipping on more retsina. After a very late afternoon nap (doing our best to get on local time) we discovered an outdoor movie theatre. When we were in Greece a few years ago this was one of my favorite things to do, sit under the starry sky in the cooler night air and watch a movie. And guess what they were showing? Inception. We got our wish of seeing it again, just sooner than we imagined. We then got to take another incredible walk through the old fort at night so we could make our way back down into the harbor. Unforgettable.
