Now that I am back home and have wifi that doesn’t run at a snails pace I have been able to upload a selection of photos from the trip for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!
Greece 2015 – The Pictures
Greece 2015 – Corfu Town, Corfu – And Home Again
Last days of a holiday are always difficult as there’s the packing up, checking out and then the hanging around at the airport. Fortunately for us our flight wasn’t until 9pm and we still had the hire car so we could make the most of the day.… Read the rest
Greece 2015 – Mouse Island, Corfu – Threatening Skies
It’s our penultimate day in Corfu and we are beginning to struggle to find new things to do, part of the problem to coming to an island so small and not being the sort of people to just sit and relax by the pool!… Read the rest
Greece 2015 – Kassiopi, Corfu – King of the Castle
While Corfu is a small island traversing it can take a while as the roads are narrow, windy and not very well maintained. So a trip from Ermones to Kassiopi which is about 25 miles takes an hour and a half.… Read the rest
Greece 2015 – Butrint, Albania – “Taken” by the Archaeological Beauty
An early start for a trip further afield today with a trip to Albania. Now before today all I really knew about Albania was that it was the country that America went to war with in the film Wag the Dog.… Read the rest
Greece 2015 – Ermones, Corfu – How’s Your Vatos?
Today we decided to do a walk around the area local to the hotel. We did this a couple of years ago when we were here last and knew it to be a pretty walk but that the instructions were somewhat inaccurate.… Read the rest
Greece 2015 – Keykyra, Corfu – Hunt for the Cafe Bristol
Corfu is a small island and so it is difficult to find new things to do but today we stumbled upon somewhere we hadn’t been before. On our way to the very beautiful Vlacherna Monastery we stopped at some Roman ruins that we had seen before but never got round to.… Read the rest
Greece 2015 – Paleokastritsa, Corfu – Exchanging One Boat for Another
After a leisurely start to the day that included a talk from the Thomson rep telling us of all the wonderful things we could do while on the island we set off in our little hire car to the pretty seaside “town” of Paleokastritsa.… Read the rest
Greece 2015 – Corfu, Greece – Back on Dry Land
So today was our last day at sea sailing over night from Montenegro back to Greece to leave our floating hotel for one on terra firma.
The whole cruise operation is a slick one and with a ratio of two guests to every crew member it is hard not find someone no matter where you are on board.… Read the rest
Greece 2015 – Kotor, Montenegro – Hitting our Step Target Early
I’m going to try and sound less like a card carrying UKIP member today…
The final stop on the cruise before returning back to Corfu was Kotor in Montenegro. We had read that the sail into port was the closest you could get to the Norwegian fjords without actually going there but had to be up early to see it.… Read the rest
