Well here we are in sunny Corfu. A 1250 mile drive, a twenty four hour ferry, five nights in a damp tent and one night in a blissful cabin in Venice (as it was p'ing it down) we pulled into the port of Corfu.
The car went like a hero problem free, even over the mighty Alps!!
The tent was good although every day was sunny and clear the inside of the tent was wet through every morning due to low overnight temps, a heavy dew and too much breathing!!
Well so far so good eventful from day one and at some point this week I will explain all.
The weather here is good, generally sunny and warm to hot with mild evenings (sorry.)
The house is OK plenty, for us to do and we are managing to cycle to local shops for fresh veg/fruit etc. This raises the eyebrows of the locals who must refer to us as that "odd English couple who cycle everywhere." They all speak albeit in Greek and we have no idea what they are saying but some do speak English which does help us a little.
It took us a while to get on line and in touch with the world but we are there now and we will keep in touch.
I will put some more on this week about our trip over which was great and a few other bits.
I have to go and assemble my new flat pack wardrobe now so I have somewhere to put all my gear. More Greek instructions - joy.
Bye for now more later
