After spending a week in the Bodrum penninsula in Turkey, we took a boat over to the Greek island of Kos.  These were the final days of our trip and it was such a treat to fill our days with varying degrees of lounging coupled with a bit of history.  Kos is famous for being the home of Hippocrates and we had the opportunity to visit the timeworn tree that Hippocrates used to instruct his students under.

Here is a sampling of my favorite snapshots.
