The ferry from Athens docks at Ydra (Hydra)

where automobiles are banned, but donkeys vie to carry your luggage

We explore the caves at Laconia by boat

We sail the Ionian Sea in the Messenia region

We visit temple ruins at Archea Olympia

where the Olympic Games were first played

Ice cream is plentiful in every Greek Isle village

including this village: Nydri on Lefkada Island

A "fixer upper" in Limeni village

in the Mani Region, Peloponnese

A church on Milos Island in the Cyclades

It's a long (and windy) walk

to the church at the top of Folegandros Island

We stop for drinks at a cafe high up on Folegandros Island

Each Greek island has unique and attractive character

We arrive at Rhodes, one of the larger Greek Islands

and explore the main shopping street of the "Old Town"

But the "Old Town" of Rhodes mostly has narrow, twisting streets
