A big hello goes out to everyone from me at the Lindianet Internet Cafe. I'm on holiday and you are not, so ner-ner to you.
Good things about Lindos, Rhodes:
- It's hot and it never rains.
- It is cursed (blessed?) by a plague of cats. Everywhere you go you see some, and if you drop some food you'll be up to your elbows within minutes.
- There are fat men in vests that sit around in the streets. I consider this in keeping with Mediterrainian tradition.
- Nice beaches, and octopi to boot.
- The english guy at the tourist office has gone native. The horror...
- It's a freerunner's paradise. If you can get onto a roof then you can get over the entire city of Lindos without touching the ground. Fun!
Bad things about Lindos, Rhodes:
- As well as cats, there are also a biblical amount of flies.
- It's easy to get lost in the city...labyrinthine.
- There are lots of fat brit people dropping cigarettes on the beaches and swearing. They squash what little British patriotism I posess under their enormous bulk.
- They haven't invented snack foods.
- Everything is expensive, even in Euros.
- The drain in my room smells, although I admit this is not the fault of Greece as a nation, just the guy who maintains the flats.
- The only form of transport is donkeys (which smell, believe me) and mopeds. At least the scooters don't shit everywhere...
Overall, the goods easily outweigh the bads. Great restaurants too. Went for a swim today and my brother was attacked by a vicious octopus (okay it wasnt that vicious and it was around a foot wide, but who cares). And those rooftops...ah, it's fun here. Incredibly, our flat is right next to an internet cafe. Coincidence?
