| Am renuntat sa mai detaliez ziua a 7-a si asta pentru ca a fost o zi de leneveala, plaja, fructe proaspete si balaceala in mare. Ne-am luat adio intr-un mod perfect de la insula Rodos. Mi-a placut mult ca grecii au fost prietenosi si mai ales comunicativi. Te trezeai pe strada sau in restaurant cu cate un localnic care te intreba de viata. Daca iti place aici, de unde esti, daca iti place mancarea si ce ai vizitat … si tot asa. Desi duc o viata boema si la pranz ii vezi pe toti cum lenevesc la siesta, am observat ca sunt extrem de corecti. Mi s-a parut foarte amuzanta o intamplare petrecuta cu vanzatorul de la care ne-am luat zilnic portia de fructe pe plaja. Chiar in ultima zi de plaja am cumparat printre altele si o caserola cu pepene galben. Pana acum toate fructele au fost delicioase. Ei bine de data asta nu, pepenele avea un gust oribil asa ca ne-am indreptat cu el spre cel mai apropiat cos de gunoi. Nu aveam de gand sa mergem sa cerem banii inapoi pentru ca nu am considerat ca am patit o paguba atat de mare si oricum eram atat de relaxati incat nu prea mai conta nimic 🙂 Ce credeti? Vazatorul ne-a ochit cu caserola plina langa cosul de gunoi si a venit sa ceara detalii. I-am explicat ce s-a intamplat si am primit o caserola noua cu pepene delicios. Reactia lui a fost una normala, dar avand in vedere ca in Romania multi sunt obisnuiti sa incerce sa iti fure fure chiar si un leu mie mi s-a parut tare dragut din partea lui. | I didn’t write about our 7-th day here, and that’s because we had a very relaxing time at the beach, with fresh fruits and many baths in the sea. It was a perfect goodbye. I enjoyed very much the fact that the locals were friendly and communicative. They would just come up and ask about your day or if you like it here, where are you from, if you like what you saw, how was your day … and so on. Even if they lead a bohemian life, with a daily lunch siesta, I noticed they are very fair. And to prove it here’s a story with a very nice salesman from which we bought our daily dose of fruits on the beach. On our last day, we bought amongst others, a cantaloupe casserole. Until now, all fruits were delicious. But not this time … it tasted horrible so we headed straight to the trash bin. We were not planning on demanding our money back or something like that because it was not that big of a deal. Also, we were so relaxed that nothing else mattered 🙂 But what do you think? The fruit salesman saw us with a full casserole right next to the trash bin and came to ask for details. When we told him what happened he went and got us another casserole with a delicious content. His reaction was the normal one but considering that in Romania many people only think about stealing even a single penny, I found his reaction really nice. |

| Daca ati mai citit blogul, atunci stiti deja ca sunt pasionata de sport. Si cum sa ratez un obiectiv sportiv tocmai in vacata? Putin in afara orasului puteti da o fuga pana la Monte Smith (o colina denumita dupa un general britanic) – aici puteti vedea stadionul antic, un mic amfiteatru si templul lui Apollo, toate sunt incluse intr-un parc natural, iar intrarea este gratuita. Am ajuns pana aici cu unul dintre cele doua autobuze turistice, care avea statie la doar 5 minute de hotel. Sunt doua astfel de autobuze (rosu si galben) care circula din ora in ora. Biletul costa 15 euro de dimineata sau 12 euro dupa ora 12. Biletul e valabil toata ziua. Aveti insa grija la culoarea autobuzului, biletul nu este valabil pentru ambele linii. Acelasi tur il puteti face si cu trenuletul turistic, biletul costa 7 euro, insa e valabil pentru un singur drum. Am fost singurii turisti care au coborat din autocar, iar timp de o ora am admirat in liniste ruinele antice. Stadionul s-a pastrat destul de bine, in special o parte din tribuna. De aici, puteti continua traseul cu autobuzul sau trenuletul, abele acopera foarte bine cele mai importante obiective din Rodos. | If you’ve read my blog before, then you know I am very passionate about sports. And how could I have missed an ancient sports site in my vacation? Outside the town, you can find Monte Smith (a hill named after a British general) – here you can visit the ancient stadium, a small amphitheater and the temple of Apollo, all of them are included in a natural park, with free entrance. We arrived here with the hop on hop off bus, the station was just 5 minutes away from our hotel. There are two buses (red and yellow), with an hourly schedule. One ride is 15 euros in the morning, or 12 euros by noon. A ticket is available for the day. You can also take this ride in a tourist train for 7 euros for a one-way ticket. We were the only tourists who descended from the bus to visit the site, and for an hour we admired the ancient ruins. The stadium is well preserved, especially the spectator seating. From here, you can continue to visit Rhodes by bus or train, both cover the most important touristic objectives. |

| E pacat sa ajungeti in Rodos si sa nu explorati o parte dintre locatiile fenomenale pe care insula le ofera. Am inceput usor azi, cu o vizita pe zidurile orasului. Turul incepe din orasul vechi, de la Castelul Marelui Maestru, chiar din curtea interioara. Daca veti dori sa explorati Rodosul atunci aveti grija sa va incaltati corespunzator, multe dintre strazi sunt pavate cu pietre de mare asa ca adidasii sunt de departe cea mai buna varianta. Plimbarea pe zidurile cetatii dureaza cam o ora; veti avea parte si de cateva peisaje fabuloase. Aveti insa mare grija, zidurile nu sunt imprejmuite de bare de protectie, iar sfatul meu e sa nu va aventurati pe margine pentru un selfie spectaculos. Turul e deschis doar intre orele 12 si 15 (2 euro), si cel mai bine e sa aveti la voi apa si o palarie, vor fi arme importante in lupta cu razele soarelui. | It’s a shame to come to Rhodes and not explore the phenomenal locations offered by the island. We started with something easy today: a walk on the town walls. The tour starts from the old city, right in next to the Grand Master’s Palace. If you want to explore the city, please wear proper shoes, many of the streets are paved with stones from the sea and sports shoes with a thicker sole are the best choice. The walk on the walls takes about one hour and you can see some beautiful sights. Be careful though, the walls are not surrounded by protection bars, and you should not come near the edge for a daring selfie. The tour is open only between 12 and 15 (2 euros) and its best to take with you a hat and water, these are important weapons in the fight with the sun. |

| Cum altfel te poti acomoda mai bine in concediu, daca nu cu o zi … de leneveala totala. Am petrecut intreaga zi pe plaja, unde ne-am bucurat de soare si de marea pefecta. Daca aveti picoare sensibile, va recomand ca inainte sa treceti pe la orice butic (veti avea de unde alege) ca sa va cumparati incaltari speciale. Costa doar 7-8 euro si va vor scapa de durerea pricinuita de pietrele de pe plaja. Dupa prima zi in care nu m-am acomodat deloc cu masajul la talpi oferit de pietricele, am considerat ca papuceii au fost o investitie tocmai buna. | There’s no better way to get into the holiday atmosphere than a … lazy day. We spent the entire day on the beach, enjoying the sun and the perfect sea. If you have sensitive legs, then I recommend you to visit the nearest store (pick any, there are so many options) to buy some special shoes. They only cost 7-8 euros but will rid you of the pain caused by the rocky beach. During my first swim here I didn’t enjoy the foot massage I got from the pebbles, so I can say my water shoes were a good investment . |

| Sa inceapa aventura! Simteam cu o saptamana in urma ca timpul parca sta in loc si nu imi mai vine si mie randul sa plec in vacanta. Anul acesta am ales Rodos, in Grecia, unde prezentul se imbina perfect cu trecutul. A fost o alegere indelung gandita, pentru ca desi ne dorim sa petrecem ceva timp la plaja, vrem sa exploram si locuri noi. | Let the adventure begin! Lately, I was feeling like time stands still and my vacation will never come. This year I chose Rhodes, in Greece, where the present meets the past in a perfect harmony. It was an inspired choice because even if we like to spend a few hours at the beach, we also love to explore new places. |
| Weekend-ul asta a fost dedicat relaxarii, vremea a fost perfecta pentru plaja la Constanta. | This weekend was a relaxing one, the weather was amazing at the beach in Constanta. |
