Drove through Ipsos at lunchtime today, we've never seen it so quiet, only one beach lounger/umbrella franchise that we could see.

Everywhere seems the same Bob. Hardly any tourists about wherever we have been on the island. Even Corfu town feels empty.

I was down in Kalami yesterday and everyone agreed that it was the quietist (is that a word?) start to the season they had ever had. They were also saying the same in Kassiopi. The A&A is stil not full for the first time ever three weeks into the season.

While in Town yesterday, we passed the end of the airport runway, Wendy counted 6 TUI planes on the tarmac, but on our return there were 2 cruise ships in port, one of which was TUI, the other MSC, so assume many of the plane passengers were just passing through.

Quite correct Bob. Up until a couple of years ago Thomson's had a small cruise boat which held under a thousand people, then they changed it to a larger boat for over two thousand so thats another thousand people going off the island every week.

Busier in Kalami today ... no real changes but the jetty outside of Thomas's is unusable. Lady with the mallet hit the beach (or umbrella stalks) yesterday for the first time.

So Lily's Gran, it would seem that Kalami is to have it's sunbeds as usual. Unlike Ipsos as stated. And Kerassia is not going to have them this year it would appear also, some sort of kerfuffle.
