Corfu chilling - NOT amateur radio

On our last day in Corfu, we did a bit of shopping then cool drinks and people watching. 

It is meant to reach 32 degrees C later. 

It feels very hot and sunny already.

Weatherwise it has been perfect. It was just not a long enough break!

Cheers Corfu - NOT amateur radio


Tomorrow is our last day. It seems only a blink since we arrived! This is our fourth time on Corfu and in this hotel. Health allowing, I somehow think it won't be the last time.

This was our "snack" yesterday in Corfu! Excellent.  Well, we all have to help the Greek economy.

Corfu Beer

So far this week, we have had blue skies and warm sunshine and a very pleasant heat. A cold beer has been very welcome.

Corfu food - NOT amateur radio

Yesterday we ate in Corfu Town. 

My wife had sea bream caught in the morning and I had slow cooked lamb shank.  

Both were perfect as was the tzatziki Greek starter of yoghurt and cucumber.

Another lizard - NOT amateur radio

This was another lizard seen last week in Corfu. As soon as it saw me it scarpered - must be camera shy!

Back home - NOT amateur radio

We had a great holiday in Corfu but are back home again now. In Corfu it was hot with temperatures in the low 30s deg C every day. The weather could not have been better. When we got back it was cold!

The photo shows our plane on the ground in Norwich just after we landed.

Our Corfu hotel - NOT amateur radio

Our hotel here is wonderful and an ideal place to "chill", although most days it has been in the low 30 deg C. The Wi-Fi here seems OK, but the onward connection to the internet is bad. It is slow, flaky and, well, Greek. It is the worst I have ever experienced! Getting home may be wet and windy, but the internet should be heaps better. I was going to add a photo, but even a 25k file refused to upload, so I gave up!

Odd fruit? - NOT amateur radio

On a walk yesterday we saw this odd fruit (?) under a tree. It was about the size of a tennis ball and looked like green brain. I shall try to find out what it is.

Found it!  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maclura_pomifera

Last Corfu picture - NOT amateur radio

This was a sunrise in Corfu, Greece last week. As we are now home again, this is probably the last Corfu picture that I shall post on this blog.

More Corfu - NOT amateur radio

Fruit and Vegetables For Sale in Corfu Old Town
As you will have read, we enjoyed a lovely week on Corfu last week. We went with my brother-in-law and his wife and had a great hotel just outside Corfu Old Town. We ate sometimes in the town and sometimes in the hotel. It was a great spot to relax and read. Now back home.
