Greece

In May, I had a total change of scenery. I went to Corfu Island on Greece for ten lovely days. 



No phones and computers, just sunshine, clear sea, delicious food and good Greek wine.



Our Villa was in the midst of 300 year old olive groves. Between the awesome olive trees we spotted wild pear, passion fruit and Kumqat trees, as well as the odd kreepy krawly.

  

We were in walking distance to at least three little coves, two of them had some tavernas right on the beach.



Oh what bliss just to lie in the sun and sip a cold drink, do water sports..... or not....., eat......,or not, ........whatever........



A shopping trip to Corfu Old Town was great fun. I bought a gorgeous crochet tablecloth here. Sadly the art of crocheting these cloth's is slowly dying out. There are only a handful of old ladies still doing this craft.





It was a beautiful holiday with many things to see and taste.
For many reasons, I shall never forget it......
