Corfu, Greece

Corfu, Greece (Stop #6 on the Cruise):


The Corfu post will be short and sweet and the reason is because we finally got our beach day!  We again had limited time ashore and we had a clear directive; get to a beach.  So we shared a cab with our new dinner table friends from Oklahoma, (shoutout)!  And we asked the cab driver to take us to the BEST BEACH in Corfu.  He took us to Kontogialos Beach which was about 20 mintues away (speedy driver alert).
He was very nice and talkative and interested in where we come from.  The cab ride was very expensive, but he took us down the side of a cliff where we witnessed views of the beach as we were driving down.  We had arrived!





Our visions of sandy beaches and crystal clear waters had come true and we hopped in at once.  Brandon and our friends ate some seaside swordfish steak also.  This wasn't a nude beach per se, but there were a couple of boobs.

We spent the rest of the day sunbathing!


Here are also some pictures of what Corfu looked like as we sailed towards the port.











Favorite Thing About Corfu:
Go to the beach in Corfu!



Last Stop: Dubrovnik, Croatia

    Definitely a sites/mountain person. I like the beach for total relaxation, but I don't ever go now, even though I'm 30 minutes away from Malibu! :-O

    Scenic! Looks like a great vacation. I'd say I'm a sites person because I live by some of the best beaches in So California :)

      I'm a sites person too, but you of course you can't go to Greece without visiting a beach!

    What gorgeous scenery!! I've read about Corfu and have thought it would be a lovely place to visit someday. I like the ocean, but I think I'm more of a sites person. :) You are truly fortunate to be able to live in Europe for a few years to absorb and enjoy the history, culture, and beautiful architecture and countryside. It sounds like you're making the most of your time there.

    Visiting from The Tablescaper's party; have a wonderful weekend!
