Patmos


Today we went to the island of Patmos. At 8a we boarded the flying dolphin - one of the famous hydrofoils of the Greek seas.



















After arriving we made our way up the mountain until we could see our destination.







When we reached the top we worked our way through a small town to the Monastery of St. John.
In the monastery we could see how it was built and the items inside such as a giant trough and oven used to make large amounts of food for any and all visitors.



Next we moved on to go see the Cave of the Apocalypse.

The Cave of the Apocalypse (Revelation) is where St John is believed to have recorded the Book of Revelation.
