Corfu, Greece

Wednesday, November 7, 2007

It is believed that when Homer wrote about a luxurious and joyful island named "Phaeacia" he was actually writing about the island of Corfu. It is a very green and fertile island. Unfortunately it was raining the day we visited. It was also unfortunate that the garbage companies had held a strike that was over by the time we got there, but, you couldn't tell by the piles and piles of garbage, everywhere!

We has our guide take a quick picture of us when we stopped for coffee and pastries.



Here is a picture of Rod in front of our "little boat!"

Annette,
I'm sorry you had such wet weather in Greece. And, the garbage strike could not have been diverted for yoru trip, hehe. But, you and Rod were together, you were actually in Greece, how totally cool was that.
I would have LOVED the coffee and pastries and would have had to keep pinching myself to realize what different countries we were in.
OH, your LITTLE BOAT was like soooooooooo little, hehe. Poor Rod looked like a little speck, I didn't even see him at first.
You are going to jump back onto your little boat and sail to your next destination.
Oh, I know what I wanted to ask you. Did you do anything special on the ship? Did they have dinners and entertainment and such? Just being nebby, honey. hehe
Thank you sooooo much for continuing to guide us through your trip, you have no idea how much I am enjoying this!!
Love,
Sue :-)
