Today is our last day in Thessaloniki. We decided to do some sightseeing. They have a Hop On Hop Off bus here and we thought we would take it. We have taken HOHO busses in other cities and it is a great way to get yourself familiar with a city. They are usually reasonably priced and sometimes you get 2 days for the price of one. This one started at The White Tower over near the port area. We took a taxi over to the White Tower. We were too late and missed the first bus, but were able to get on the 2nd one. The bus had 8 stops you could get on and off at. We road the complete circuit first which takes about 70 minutes. This allows you to see where everything is and decide where you want to get off. After riding the complete circuit we rode it back to where the castle was and got off there. It is one of the most popular stops. Since we are in the shoulder season, the buses run every 40 minutes. This gave us 40 minutes to explore the area, before getting on the next bus. We walked around a little and did a little shopping, then got on the bus back to the White Tower. We got off there and walked around the water front. By this time I was hungry, wo we went looking for a restaurant. After lunch, we took a taxi back to the apartment to finish up our laundry. We again ordered dinner to be delivered.
