From Sam & Sally on Patmos


Dear J&J,  We are here in Greece! Been a week now on 
Patmos. We came via Athens, but spent only an evening and 
a day there (one night). Visited the Acropolis and a few 
other sights, but had to catch a ferry. 
 
It's beautiful here. We're in Hora, a cluster of stone 
buildings around the Monastery of St. John,  which 
dominates the high point. It's a rabbit warren of stone 
passageways. Ariadne could make a fortune. We're learning, 
though, just by being adventurous. 
 
Our house has a great view of the Aegean.  We have our 
own courtyard, complete with two lemon trees heavy with 
fruit. Upstairs. Downstairs. You should visit! 
 
This is a working trip, so we're spending four to five 
hours writing each day.  Things come at their own pace, 
even so. We still have two months before we head back.
 
Love from Patmos, 
Sam and Sally
