We decided to go for a walk along the other coast road today. We didn't get very far, just as far as Ichos. We had a swim close to Rhodes, very pleasant though not as warm as at Lindos or Kalithea. We had dinneron the beach at Ichos and I went to sleep for over an hour. We walked back along the same road and stopped off to visit Mount Smith. We didn't actually find it but we walked a good 800 metres as it said on the sign post. We had an early dinner at the same cafe close to the hostel and then wandered around the town. I bought a special sandwich which was only 2.50 drachma, the other was 3.00 drachma. It certainly wasn't in the English tradition. Its a kind of pancake rolled up with meat, onions, sauce and flavouring in the centre. Very good but slightly indigestible if too many are eaten. Bob has also bought a Greek hat, a blue one. we met that Greek woman again but managed to get rid of her. There is a cafe just up the road from the hostel which has a band and singers complete with loudspeakers. Eastern-type music blares out every night until about 02.00. We heard them warming up this evening with "Roll out the barrel". It didn't sound quit right somehow, but even so it provided a great deal of amusement. Went to bed quite early - both tired out.
