From Dikili to Mythilini (Greece for a day)

Hey look, I still have pictures I haven't posted from our summer holiday.

Dikili, Turkey






Atomically-correct horse. Nothing but the best for Atatürk.

At the harbor, 7a.m. ready to take the ferry over to the island of Lesvos, Greece.



We waited for 5 hours for the 2 passport controllers to get through everyone.



Mythilini. It was only an hour ride.




Once we landed, we ran for it, getting ahead of most of the other 300 people and were through the passport line (again with only 2 controllers). We rented a car and took off on an adventure. Sadly we only had 5 hours since we needed to be back at 6 for the ferry. These are pictures from our wanderings around Mythilini after our car ride.



Our rental car.










Sik = Fuck in Turkish, so Mick had a little chuckle.











Yeah, it was a little disappointing. We spent 5 hours on the island and needed 8 hours to get there. I was still happy to get to see a little slice of Greece for the first time.
