Corfu - 29th to 30th of April 2008

Corfu is one of Greece's Ionian islands, just west of the mainland. We arrived Corfu 5am local time and literally did not know whether to turn left or right off the boat. Because we were unsure if we could even get on our ferry, we didn't book anywhere to stay. Luckily a hostel we had heard of was picking some other people up so we ran for that minivan after half an hour of aimless walking around in the dark.

The hostel is geared up for early morning arrivials, so we were able to check in at 8am and have breakfast. Because we had some sleep on the ferry we were able to get straight into it, so hired a quad bike and went into Corfu town and explored some of the island, although it is huge. Corfu town is really pretty and very Italian like - we were quite at home! It has a pretty waterfront dominated by an old fortress, and cute little streets.
