Memories of Corfu
1 The lovely beaches at Ayios Georgious, 2. the beautiful view of the Monastery and beach at Paleokastritsa from the overlooking hills. (for me the best view in the world- nothing I have seen has bettered it) 3. the taxi ride round the Island and the taxi driver who wanted to take us everywhere (for no extra cost) 4. the motor cycle I hired to drive on a variety of road surfaces up to Kassiopi in the the north of the Island (Grandma on the back) and the views of distant Albania. 5. Gerald Durrel's home and the lovely beach. 6. The sea trip to Corfu town (Kerkya) and the cricket ground in the centre built by the Brits who left it when they left the Island; and Ugh the poor plumbing installed by the said Brits. 8 the white cubic houses with iron rods sticking out of the top. 9 the columnar pointed trees which seemed to be everywhere. 10 The statue of Apollo - our "Greek night out", dancing like Anthony Quinn, Greek coffee and ladies in black leading their donkeys and finally the lovely tavernas on the said beach. Waiting on the beach for the coach to take us to the airport. In spite of everything, - It seems a long time ago, but I would love to go back. Grand dad
