A Fab Day in Corfu
I'm using a Greek keyboard, so bear with me. We're in Corfu Town, wandering about. It's charming and, its internet cafes have much lower rates than the ship does. Messina yesterday turned out to be dismal, dreary, and dirty. After ...
My Greek island adventure
... an awful August here in England, I decided I needed a holiday. I booked a week long stay in Kavos on the Greek island of Corfu. What A time I had. As soon as I got off the plane I found my travel rep. and told him I was going to Aprodite Appartments ...

I LOVE GREECE!
... hotspot for college students looking to party, which is me! We took a cruise from Italy to mainland Greece and then a ferry the rest of the way to Corfu totalling close to an entire day of travelling but it was half the fun. Everyone we met ...
Greece
... table. The island of Corfu is like 30 miles long and about 7 or 8 wide and is up near the border between Greece and Albania. I remember looking across the little bay that separates Corfu from the mainland and seeing some high snow-capped plateaus. ...
Lunch in Paleokastritsis
I headed to Paleokastritsas which is fabulously picturesque, but was full of coach-loads of Bulgarians the day I visited. VERY tatty. I did stop for a bite of lunch, but decided that the best view would be from Lakones, and although this involved a ...
The Pink Palace
So basically at a flip of a coin, Brent and I decided to head to Greece rather than Croatia. We spent a long day traveling from Pompeii and the Amalfi coast, to the Eastern coastal town of Brindisi to catch a ferry to the nearest Greek island of Corfu, ...

I plan to spend four days on the island. Does anyone know how to travel from the island to Durres, ...
2nd relaxing day on Corfu (kind of!)
My 2nd day on Corfu was a pretty fun day. Myself and Tom headed out towards the nudist beach, not to be a nude but to swim to these islands that were off shore. The swim took us around 30 mins there or so and I could definatley feel the burn on the way ...
All quiet on the Western front
Suddenly finding myself unexpectedly in the history-laden island of Corfu, I book into sleepy Atlantic hotel, right on the docks. The following morning I go for a wander around the old town. Pleasant enough, with many old Venetian style building ...
Finally Some Time To Relax
... roam around and do as we pleased. By myself for the first time on the trip, I just decided to wander and do some shopping. Corfu town was a labrynth of narrow alleyways with small cafes and shops. It was easy to get a bit lost amongst this maze but since ...
Greek Island of Corfu
We got on the bus early for a shorter 3.5 hour tour. The bus took us first up to a Palace built by Princess Sissi of Austria to get away from the royal court. Her mother in law didn't like her because she was not highly educated and had populist ideas ...
my father would never approve
... get within two feet of another verhicle. Anyway on arrival I found I had two hours to myself so took myself off around Corfu Old town. I went in perhaps the most singularly beautiful little greek orthodox chaple I have ever been in and stood with my ...
Corfu, Greece - Pink Palace
June 22, 2008 Now I am waiting for the shuttle to Pink Palace from the Hostel Aphrodite! We were thinking at the beach man we need a cooler bag, well sure enough while buying a six pack of water for 1.50 euro we noticed a stack of 5 L ...
Christmas Day, Stealth mode pays off.
... dinner earlier and was introduced to Tipero, similar to Ouzo but much, much nicer and very authentic to the area of Greece Nikoletas mother comes from. It was obvious that Nikoletas father was still concerned about us driving to Larissa in the morning, ...
Rest & Recuperation at last
Arrived in Corfu after a non eventuful flight. So simple in and out of airport here.... not much in the way of checking.... has changed heaps in almost 40 years.... Flight was fine, and booked a hotel from the airport. A lovely place ...
Raining in Corfu
We did something that we don't normally do. We arrived in Corfu without a room, or even the prospect of one. We sat in the little dining area of the building at the dock, and had some pastries and coffee to warm up. The weather was chilly, and ...
Corfu, quanti ricordi
... di rivedere Angelokastro, una fortezza bizantina del 13esimo secolo a picco sul mare, e Paleokastritsa, una baia incantevole, dove passai l'unico pomeriggio libero a Corfu, e anche una bella giornata l'anno dopo con i mii genitori ...
Day 24 - Corfu
Today we took a taxi and went up the coast to a town called Dassia. We planned to spend the day at the beach and hopefully do some watersports. Our first attempt was trying to rent a speedboat for the day. The price was great! Only 110 Canadian for ...
The Pink Palace
I survived the Pink Palace in Corfu, Greece without breaking my back! Yay... although considering the things I saw while there, I'm not surprised that someone I know ...
Pink Palachy
I am writing this blog post-experience after 6 days at The Pink Palace in Corfu, Greece. The island was beautiful, the water crystal clear and 27 degrees but I wasn’t here just for the scenery. I was also here to check out this 25 year old hostel ...
Onwards to Corfu
