Another great sleep which would have gone a lot longer if it wasn't for Len calling out at 9am to get us out of bed. Thankfully he called out or we might have slept till midday. Today we were going to visit the Castle of Mytiline.
There will be no history on this castle other than to say it's much bigger and better than the Castle at Molyvos. Same type of weird dressed men and women running around a long time ago, trying to be kings and Queens. Do a google to find out more.
The photo above was taken inside one of the may rooms of the castle. This room was used for the storage of ammunition.
The photo above is of the Haman that is inside the castle with the town of Mytiline in the distance.
The photo above is of the cistern that provided the water for the people who lived in the castle.
The photo above is taken from the wall of the castle looking down over the Aegean Sea and Mytiline.

After spending about 2 hours at the castle it was time to walk back into town and get something to eat. We're going to have an early dinner tonight, and get a good nights sleep as we have to get up early to catch the ship back to Turkey. We still have about 400kms to ride before we reach Istanbul with a couple of stops at Troy and Gallipoli as well.
Until tomorrow, safe riding.
