Sunday 24 April:
Our Easter's Day in Rhodes: We started with a very nutrient and savoury breakfast prepared by Maria Luisa of Pink Elephant Pension, tasted in the outdoors terrace. Breakfast is composed by a lot of type of bread, apricot and strawberry jam, butter, orange juice, milk coffee and tea, fresh strawberries, greek yogurt with honey, greek cookies. This breakfast was quite delicious!
Then we did a tour of the old town. We saw the Arab Quarter with his fountain, shops, cafès and restaurants; we went up the Byzantine Clock Tower and we had a drink in her beautiful terrace, apple juice for me and hellenic coffee for Matti.
Walking around the streets we noticed that a lot of restaurateurs cooked the grilled lamb outside the restaurants for Easter's Lunch.

At 12 we rented a scooter and we went to Lindos, a very nice village, very greek style, with white houses, goats, donkeys and great food! We went up to the Acropoli but it was closed...Phew! But fortunately we admired an amazing view!
Then we had a delicious Easter's Lunch on the terrace of the Delight Restaurant. We ate the Special Grilled Lamb with potatoes, Feta (the typical greek cheese), Pita with Hummus (chicpeas' sauce) and Tzatziki (a greek meze, a souce made with yogurt, garlic, cucumbers, salt, olive oil, peppers, dill and sometimes also mint).
Do you notice something strange? I have Minnie tee and Matti has Mickey mouse tee. They are a special OVS couple of tees. It was my present for S.Valentine's day! It's so sweet! |
