Rhodes, Greece

Rhodes was one of those islands that we really need to re-visit.  On this trip in mid-October we got just a taste of this place and were able to see the highlights:  the Plateau of Filerimos with the Church of Our Lady built upon the foundations of the ancient temple of Athena, the medieval town of Rhodes (a UNESCO world heritage site) and the Grand Masters' Palace.  So much history, such little time.
