Lil Sis Alice and I had a perfect girlie holiday in Rhodes a week or so ago. It was hot and sunny and had just the right mix of doing nothing, reading books and seeing bits of the island.
Our hotel was less than perfect and I would not encourage anyone to go and stay there - for reference it was the Blue Bay Hotel and Sunland Apartments. The food was pretty naff, but we were there on an all inclusive basis so didn't have too much choice!! We went out for lunches which was lovely and put up with it the rest of the time.
the two trips we went on were fab - a trip to a wine festival in the mountains - with proper Greek supper in a family restaurant. The other was a boat trip from Rhodes Town to Lindos with a swimming stop. For some reason I LOVE jumping off boats and swimming in the sea, as long as I have a snorkel and mask!! I can take or leave swimming from the beach but swimming from a boat is awesome.
Lindos was beautiful, calm and felt like a proper Greek village. The Acropolis was good, but we ended up on top of it at noon - in the blazing heat. Still managed to still and wonder about how this structure was around before Jesus Christ. Quite a head messing thought.
The weirdest thing about our accommodation was the evening entertainment - which was run by the in house 'animation' team. There was also an on site kids club run by a Dutch holiday company. They started every evening with a song - which both Alice and I woke up several mornings singing - I thought you might like to hear it here: KIDSWORLD
So yes a much needed break. I have come back feeling better, refreshed and more positive. Let's hope it can last 7 months!!
