Aqualand Village Corfu

Corfu was surprisingly warm today, around the mid 70s, which was warm enough for us to spend some time at the Aqualand water park. I've never been to a larger water park and we make is just in time before they closed for the winter. Me and my buddies played around until it began to get cool towards the late afternoon. <br><br>This morning we visited the ...

... little ladies. Woosh. I don't know what they put in the Southern American water, but whenever a latin beat comes on, the little 80-year old gals throw their walkers to the side, stand up and start gyrating their hips in 360 directions without a second's hesitation. And their husband's do the same. It makes you feel like a teenager just watching them. It's so, so great.<br><br>Okay, I think that may be all I have for updates right now. I've taken a zillion photos and even some ...

... straight for the cable car queue. The compromise (after Robyn found out the cable car queue was an hour&#8217;s wait) was a donkey ride up the zig zag path. Robyn only just got on her donkey before it took off at full speed. Olivia was on next and much to Mitchell&#8217;s disgust the guy lifted him straight off his feet and planted him behind her as a pillion passenger. Next was Chris&#8217;s ride with Ryan planted in front of him. Their donkey ...

... on a chair no sleep with so many weird looking passengers seriously it was like the waiting room for hell.<br><br>So we tried and tried to get sleep but the crossing was terrible the boat was up and down and up and down. Just as I thought I was going to sleep this man came stumbling into the room with a cigarette and a cheap bottle of cider looking for his wife shouting her name when he found her he hit her over the head with the bottle and said some random things to ...

... I did was have a lovely shower and do all the girlie things like paint my nails and stuff washed my hair and feeling so much more better. Got laundry together and took it to be washed so going to get clean clothes tomorrow stop me feeling grotty as ran out of underwear ha ha.<br><br>Corfu Town is really nice a bit touristy but that ok there are lots of winding roads and stuff selling all sorts of fun things got some fake Gucci sunglasses as I have ...

... fishes in it amazing. Ian rang me to tell me that he was in a little cafe up on the village and that the village was brilliant really Greek so I think he is happy that we are getting out of here so that we can see a bit more of the island tomorrow. He came to the beach and ended up having a swim and we had a lovely lunch in the taverna and had a really nice day. The guys from the hostel where on the beach and we had a little chat with them. <br ...

... Every night is a different theme. Our first night there, the theme was cross dressing night. Thankfully, we had just made buddies with three guys. They helped us with the guy clothes, and we helped them with the girl clothes and the makeup. I wish everyone could have seen what good girls these guys made...it was almost scary! From the moment they had their makeup done, they played the part of girls and did not break character. It was an absolute riot!!! We ...

... air conditioning. We had great entertainment in the morning and evening. The man staying in the room next to us had the most incredible voice. We would start and end our day to his singing. There is a well known place of accommodation on Corfu called the Pink Palace. It can hold over 1000 people at a time and is non-stop partying around the clock. Apparently even die hard partiers will have had enough of the place after a few days. The island is a popular spot for British ...

... by a very long ferry ride. It was quite worth it however, we are now at the Pink Palace which is great and I was wading in the Mediteranean Sea in shorts and a T-shirt which I definately could not have down a week earlier in the mountains of Bavaria. This evening we will be catching a ferry back to the mainland and then heading to Athens. I am hoping it will all go as planned (It never seems to though) Till then. Your personal deity, Brian

... our AA road map of Corfu indicates that the road to the top was little more than a dirt path, we discovered that it has now been sealed all the way. Nevertheless the scooter grumbled and groaned as we wound slowly upwards, the temperature gauge, as usual, never much below the danger area. The most astounding thing about this monastery, which was apparent to us even from the ferry on the way from Italy, is that a giant, Eiffel Tower-like communications mast has ...
