A note! You used to be able to buy a postcard picture of the Colossus, wearing a big diaper! I don't know if they still sell such cards!!? It's always gonna be one of my favorite sites!!

Many thanks for your excellent photos of Rhodes, one of my favorite Greek isles! I think Mussolini is the correct way to spell "his" name?

Thanks for the comments and explanations
It really helps when people supply some information about what the picture is all about. Both the photos and the comments were really informative. Thanks George (also from Canada!)

Thoroughly enjoyed all your pictures. Must be lot's of history in that town. It boggles the mind to imagine the colossus astride the water 2500 years ago. Thanks Terry (Canada)
