With just a day break, my dad left and Dori and Skye arrived in London...just for the night.
On Thursday morning we took a taxi to Gatwick airport in order to get to our vacation in Corfu, Greece! We spent three days in paradise.
Once we arrived, we checked into our hotel, which was a little sketchy to say the least, but fine overall. We got unpacked a little and then headed into town for our first adventure.
In town we explored a little and realised that April is the off season in Greece and therefore nobody can help you find what you need and there are no tourist booths open. That being said, we found our own way around and saw Greece our way.
We went to a beatiful and secluded beach on the first afternoon we were in Corfu. The water was so blue and completely clear. You could see ocean everywhere and really cool mountains surrounding the water.
That night we went to a Greek food place and got a taste for the Greek culture and figured out that most people there do not speak very much English...challenging.
The second day we woke up pretty early to catch the bus into town from Kanoni, where we were staying. We then walked super fast to get to the green bus station....to get on at bus that would take us as close as possible to Glifalda beach(everyone said we had to go there).
Once we got dropped off we walked the rest of the way to the beach and were suprised...(kind of) by the fact that we were the only three people there not inculding four workers on the other side of the shoreline.
We all took naps on the beach and tanned a little on basically our own private beach.
On the walk back to the bus stop we came accross a donkey, chickens, roosters, tons of wildlife and a broken down old car. The view from the top of the hill was specatcular and the walk was well worth it because of how peaceful and beautiful the beach was.
After getting some watermelon gelato and a really good greek salad, we went back to our hotel to regroup and plan out the night.
Perfect Paradise,
Johnni Z
