I went to sleep at 6pm last night and slept until 8.30 today haha only waking up to absolutely blasting music vibrating my pillow around 11.30 (the club below- I did read about this in the reviews) luckily it was a beautiful swing band however still ridiculously loud! At 12.30 this stopped and modern music started but this wasn't half as loud.
I got up in the morning and asked the really nice reception lady if I could move room to further down the corridor as I was literally ontop on the club and she happily said yes and I moved rooms.
Waited until 11 to leave so I could get a yiros on my way and not be ashamed haha. It was amazing and I asked what the delicious sauce was he said it was lemon sauce: mayo, fresh crushed lemon and something else. Delicious.
Then I walked over to the beach as i had given up on sight seeing it was 38!!! I went to my seat yesterday cos I knew there was wifi but it wasn't working but I knew elli beach bar did so I hopped over and they have me the code. I actually paid today only €4 haha.
Chatted to everyone on viber all day long haha they must be so sick of me by now but I loved it! I stayed in the shade for most of the day cos I didn't want to burn. I was so content laying on the beach bed chatting away. I ran my battery completely flat haha.
I googled to see if there was a sephora (make up and perfume mega store) in Rhodes cos i need some perfume but the search came up with a whole heap of porn hahah I took a screen shot and will put a pic up haha.
I didnt end up leaving the beach until 5 and I had got a bit of colour anyway! It was still boiling hot but I wandered through the old town a little and got some pistachio ice cream (of course). The new commercial town looks awful I am SO glad I didn't stay there!! I nearly cancelled my booking to be closer to the beach but it's only a 15 min anyway and it's a beautiful walk through old town. It is actually medieval!! Its just such a shame that the streets are lined with rip off stores. Makes it a bit tacky. But I guess in their economic climate if it sells it's sells and everyone wants to make some money.
I got home and spend a couple of hours in my room writting and organizing a list of places I want to go to in Europe before my visa is up. It is looonnnggg. But if it's 24 and I have 24 months that's one a month. That is totally doable. Even if its just a weekend getaway once a month. And I will have holidays so surely I can put a few in one. I will put a photo of the list up so you can see how unrealistic I am haha.
It was still light out and I decided not to go to dinner until it was dark so I could wander around and not die of heat exhaustion. So I skyped with Claire for an hour. So good to see her face and hear about her adventures. Cannot believe I will see her in Santorini in a only a week.
Around 8.30 I was starving and it was dusk so set off but ended up back at my square because everything looked so gross and overpriced. I asked Mike (another of the hotel runners) where to go and he said yannis and I said I went there last night and he said okay lefteras over the square. So I walked over and it was the lovely nice man who pointed me in the direction of my hotel when I got in the other day. He had told me to come back. So I said hiiii iv come back and he said ahh my beautiful Australian and kissed me on both cheeks haha so nice!!
I sat down and got a greek salad and moussaka (which was UNREAL). Before though I got beautiful fresh bread with freshly crushed tomatoes and olive tapande!! Yummmm. I have had such luck with food in Rhodes!!
My feet got attacked with Mosquitos under the table so I ran back to the hotel and put rid etc on (there is a lot to that etc after Spain I have tablets crams sprays and more!!).
I walked around old town it is so beautiful. Went down a few very long very dark streets that maybe I should not have but I am alive yay haha. And they were breathtaking. So medieval it felt like I was in a movie!!
I wonder with the cats everywhere, they are all kittens. Is that just how big they get or do they not survive longer or what? Because every cat I have seen is very little. Maybe because they don't eat a lot they don't get very big??
