Perivoli Corfu

... our room (please note the word "us". Since leaving Tanzania humans of the female sex have been pretty much invisible. I nearly blushed at the sudden attention of being addressed as a human). Our cabin door magically unlocks by pushing our ferry tickets into a slot. Very cool all this sudden technology. Marvin and I try to keep our composure when we see the cabin and then whoop in unison. Not only are there white sheets and soft down blankets on the ...

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.

This morning we visited the ...

... I employed my Italian skills to find the right place to go. They employed their English skills to go where I went. Then there's the CA couple that I ate lunch with one day, that also were on the shuttle with us. There's the little Italian couple that I met at the Meringue Party, who I danced with the woman for 2 or 3 songs. There's the couple that sat on the balcony with me during the official cruise send off, who helped me climb up to the balcony -- okay, actually it was a ...

... 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’s office and get far more chips in exchange for money than they should. Chris has ...

... actually allowed to do that....). Eventually docked on the main land at this little beach which had a random nightclub / restaurant / waterpark complex and nothing else. A bit odd but a pretty perfect combination really. So we showered and had drinks on board the boats before dinner of chicken souvlaki, more Greek salad, dips, chips... a whole lot. So delish. I looooved the Greek food. And we had the funniest thing happen at dinner. We'd just finished our entrees ...

... in Rome, so did some more get to know you games and whatnot on the next leg of the drive before arriving at Bari. We had about an hour to shop for groceries (and, more importantly, alcohol) for our 3 days on board the boats and discovered the cheapest strawberry vodka (which was amazing mixed with lemonade - tasted like nerd lollies!) and the most expensive sunscreen. And there were like 2 to choose from. Apparently skin cancer isn't such a big deal in Europe.. We ...

... they spend a lot of time relaxing, because they live on an island. I have only one dislike. The water was too cold and dirty for my taste, but there are a lot of swimming pools around, so I didn't need to swim in the open. This journey was a fun journey and I will never forget it.

... Corfu Airport. We got out on the ground, no terminal, so that was real cool. Because it is such a small airport, once you get out of the airplane, there are people there to greet you right away at baggage claim. Wam Bam. Directly from the plane to the land. :). Got out onto the streets and waved a taxi down. He wanted 20 euro, but ovecourse I must negotiate anything and everything. He accepted to take us to our hotel for 20 Euro. It was about 9:00 pm, so we ...

-the first substantial misunderstading of a whasname
Smitty: Whasname (Jess) has a boyfriend
Bosh [assuming Whasname was L-Bow]: Ah ****...
-fatty nicknamed Rums by Bosh
-girls becoming legitimately concerned about Smitty's well being, but him remaining more worried about theirs
-Smitty being placed on injured reserve after quitting mid-round after failing repeatedly to flip his cup (hero Jess covers for him ...

... so bad. Gives you goosebumps a little bit, but not so bad. Later that evening in the famous Ouzo Circle, however, is where the problems likely began. Everything was fantastic at first! We were with Jenna, John, Max, and Adam from Edmonton, and they're a load and a half of fun, so no complaints there. We were staying in this amazing room with an equally impressive view. We went on the booze cruise ...
