Third ferry experience: Igoumenitsa (Greece) – Bari (Italy): approx 300km

Superfastferries is a company deserving of its name.

We arrive at the port at 23:00 and try our luck in getting tickets for the next day’s ferry. A very friendly and efficient ...

... Greek wine and their local Ouzo. I ate Pastitsia, a pie with layers of pasta and meat but I kept eating Stee's dinner of this fish cooked in peppers and onions. Vance doesn't do fish so he had a harder time with the menu options. Everyone was in a great mood so we ended up just sitting and talking and laughing and drinking and eating for quite awhile.

Hello Friends!!!

I'm torn between it being a relief and a disappointment that I now speak English freely among all the other English-speaking folks. (I'm on the cruise.) While there are over 40 countries represented by visitors, America absolutely took the cake by almost triple that of any other country. I also don't know whether I'm proud of that fact or embarrassed by it. You might say that I'm going through a patriotic self-crisis.

The cruise has been fan ...

... seeing and pick up the clean clothes on the way home – the laundry he took us to was closed so it looked like we would smell until the end of the cruise. He dropped us at the Acropolis - it was very hot, crowded and commercialised. However a nostalgic moment happened for Chris as he remembered sitting on the steps of the Pantheon when he was five years old, hence was disappointed that it was all now roped off and so much of it was covered in ...

... But it was a lot of fun when we got there (although so dodgy, no long pants or gloves or safety talk or anything) and think I was champion of the girls ha.

After that just went and sat on the beach and chatted to people and enjoyed the niceness of it all. Was such a cute place and a lovely night. And we spent our last night sleeping on the boats which was very sad because we'd had such an amazing time. But no time to be sad cause next morning we were off to Athens!

... driver, decided to take us on the scenic route along the Amalfi coastline. He'd never bused along there before but had been told it was absolutely beautiful so decided to check it out. However, we think that whoever told him to go along the coastline didn't realise he'd be driving a bus... It took the better part of 4 hours to do what should have probably been a one hour trip - every corner we reached we had to reverse and turn, reverse and turn, just to get around ...

There is a town north of Corfu and it's really cool, but it's a village in some way.Though, I did visit the Corfu town and I must say it is AMAZING. All those fortresses and fancy resturants and bars were a total hit! Everybody was so relaxed, people aren't that stressed at all. I ...

... It did have a balcony though! The light in the toilet didnt work, I think I was glad in a way not to be able to see in there. We got changed and left as soon as possible. Corfu town was like many of the Croatain cities we had been to. Shiny marble streets, tourist shops and pavement cafes. We were pleasantly surprised by it. We ate at a fast food place with waiter service. Greek food is very good, even Greek fast ...

... up the next day from a fat man with a greedy hands. He wanted to see me ride it from the villa agency, to prove to him that I wasn't a great liability. It was a brand new red scooter with automatic transmission and was pretty fast off the mark. He told me it was 80cc but later someone else said it was only 50. Once satisfied that I could ride it properly he took me off to his agency, without an explanation of where we were going. The only thing he could say in English ...
