Dalia Corfu Town

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 ...

... chocolate-chocolate covered pretzels from my parents. Thanks mom and dad! (See? Again, I wanted to say mum and dad. I think I'm becoming an ex-pat. Oh, brother.)<br><br>The weather for the first two days was frigid. Down-right blustery. It's all anybody on the ship could talk about. Apparently we all were hoodwinked by the weathermen on that one. But finally today, the sun came out to visit and it was a pretty day. And tomorrow's high is expected to be 76 degrees in Athens ...

... as they change along the route. Ryan, Mitch and Olivia have a sea view cabin on the same level; well they would see the sea if not obstructed by a massive lifeboat. They spend most of their time in R and C's cabin anyway so benefit from that view. The boys have found the games rooms thus disappear frequently. They have charmed a crew member at the bursar&#8217;s office and get far more chips in exchange for money than they should. Chris has ...

... It was nice to see Katy and Sarah they are both lovely girls and really fun. We got on the boat in the pouring rain it was more like a cargo ship than a cruise boat so when we got onto the place where we thought the seats would be imagine our suprise not airline seats at all but just seats like in the pub seats. This is where we would be spending the evening it was an overnight boat and should take 8 hours I was not impressed that I would be spending the evening ...

Packed our stuff up so happy to leave this hole and went to pay and asked idiot Brian could we have a lift into Corfu town he said that there was no way that he could go until after 12 it was 9am but happily the owner of the hostel was popping in so he gave us a lift there. Oh thank god we got away from there it was making me miserable and ill, Ian found us a little hotel right on the front of Corfu town and its amazing really clean and the first thing ...

... Brian is not talking to me at all not that I am ***** Ian keep singing the Artic Monkeys song Brian top marks for not trying....so thats making me laugh. He said he works 20 hours a day but all I ever see him doing is sitting around watching the TV. The place could be so lovely if someone just was ***** to give it a brush around and a good bleaching because its in the most amazing spot. Next door is a five star hotel with a swimming pool all ...

... in it a terrace with dirty tables and stuff Ian picked this place because it included breakfast and dinner and he thought that after all this time together we might like to talk to some other travellers. The room Brian took us to had the same sheets on that someone the night before had used and as you cant flush toilet papers down the loo the bin also had lots of used toilet paper in it. The only redeeming feature ...

Just a quick note. Spent a fabulous day on Corfu. This is what you think of when you think of Greece. We rented motor bikes and crusied the island. I will update more when we get back to Rome on Tuesday.<br><br>Love to all,<br>Davo and Janet

... 8217;s been a great two weeks and one of the best bareboat charters we&#8217;ve ever done, a must return. So, we celebrated that night in our typical style with a fantastic last fish grill at the Piva restaurant just up from the marina.<br><br>Mapped Photo Gallery<br>BareboatingtheWorld.com

... other tourists at the top of the mountain, most of them watching the blaze and taking pictures with themselves in the foreground. To enter the monastery compound one had to be 'respectfully dressed' which excluded the majority of the tourists, many of whom wore just bikinis or swimming trunks. For those who wanted a look around but found themselves deemed unsuitably attired a woman sat at a wooden table at the entrance and handed out frumpy-looking floral frocks in ...
