What sort of places do you like to explore?

When I was in Rhodes I liked nothing better than to explore my surrounding by foot, you can see so much when you are walking, I walked all around Rhodes new and old town and admired the views and touristy places, there is so much to see and do in Rhodes you have to have your camera with you at all times. I do the historic sites and there are plenty there. I also love doing the coach tours as well that way you are given a guided tour and find out about the local history and taken to places you wouldn't know to visit if you were travelling alone. That is the best way of finding out about a new place. I am not keen on swimming in the ocean on my own because of the currents and not knowing how safe it is and what animals are in the water LOL! Like sharks and jellyfish etc. I spend a lot of time in the hotel's swimming pool if it's nice and warm. So I usually alternate a day exploring then a day of relaxation on the beach or by the poolside.

It depends on where I am and what type of holiday I am on but if on a beach type holiday I like a secluded beach thta isn't overcrowded but at the same time like to do a lot in the watre like hobbie cats or kayaking. I like visiting cities too and going around shops like in Tunis I loved the souk with it's narrow streets and lots of interesting items for sale!

I love exploring historical monuments. Particularly i love Luxor in Egypt or the area around it. However, this summer break I have been exploring in England and found a great exhibition for the kids to enjoy, called the deep in Hull. This basically is made up of a number of large aquaria full of fish from all over the world in their correct environment. The kids loved it, particularly coming face to face with sting rays (they looked to be smiling) and huge sharks (they didnt). What a wonderful place it was for the kids to spend an afternoon blessed be
