Ok so I guess I lied to you all and didn't know it till this morning
I am glad that I checked my email before I left tonight for Patmos. As it turns out the entire Island is closed. Well sort of. There are no rooms, or even beds available during this time of season. The place I thought I had booked confirmed that they are in fact closed until March, so much for online booking. So it took some more juggling schedules on ferries and other such expensive things to find out I can still go to Patmos for a single day and then I will spend a day on Rhodes and get another day and then some here on Kos. So although I do not get to spend the four days wandering the island of Patmos I still get to see it and add the Island of Rhodes to my travels and a lot more time on ferries moving back and forth through the Aegean Sea. So as my time dwindles down out in the world it seems my transport troubles continue to plague me during the off season in this part of the world. Well here is looking to all that lays ahead of me and all the pictures I can't wait to share with anyone who even looks like they may be interested when i get home (hehehe) Ta Ta 4 Now

It doesn't matter if it's low or high season. transportation is nuts-o in the Mediterranean world anytime. Sounds like you've been able to make the best of it. When I was in Greece back in '01 there was a strike on the day our tour was supposed to see Delphi. Then the ferry to & from Israel was an issue. (international ferries, you might think, would keep to the schedule, but you'd be wrong. it was a case of 'well, usually we have a thursday ferry, but this week - no.' But in each case it allows you to see & do things you wouldn't have previously thought of. Thanks for sharing your travel, I love to read about others' experiences out around the globe!
I am the first in line
