 We have arrived in Greece and are ready to explore Patmos.
When you are in Rome you do as the Romans do, and when you are in Greece you do as the Greek do.
And that is go by "scooter"
So here we are off to the monastery build in honor of the apostle John.

On the way up to the monastery. 
The monastery was build, not at the exact place where John was imprisoned, but at the highest point close to the  place he was imprisoned.
 The view from up at the monastery is astonishing.
Below "Skala" the main town in Patmos.  

A view of the bay of Skala.
