Hello everyone

In true "Sound of Music "  style I was wondering if anyone wants to share their favourite things about Corfu.

I know what gives me goosebumps , sustains me through the Winter months of waiting and can conjure up the magic of Corfu  even in my own living room.  I only need to think about......

the sound of the Scops Owl calling at night..........dawn and the sun rising over the headland........... flowers on the mountain tracks up to Pantokrator........fireflies.........the hot air as it hits you when you arrive in Corfu airport..........the smell of herbs in the air.......taking the boat way out in the channel - cutting the engine and lying back as it drifts.....

I'm counting the days.

My favorite thing is sitting on the beach, just looking at the sea and listening to the lap against the sand, especially when the place is deserted.     my second favorite is sitting in a taverna of an evening, sipping at a drink and just watching the world go by, at that lovely slower pace of life.

Breakfast on the balcony..... nothing to think about apart from where to eat lunch.... the smell of wild thyme and oregano as you crush them beneath your feet walking round from Kalami to Agni.... Friendly Greek people....

This year we will be there in May and June, so I really hope we will see the fireflies. In future I think they will feature in my "favourite things" list!

The sound of the sea lapping the rocks as you eat your meal at your favourite Taverna, the fireflies, the warmth of the sun and the smell of the sea. the atmosphere of Corfu town all the hustle and bustle of the market and shops and lovely aromas that waft past, sitting at Listons having a Frappe mmmmm!!

Agree with some of the above. I like sitting at the bar in the wee sma' hours with my favourite greek barman putting the world to rights.He is also the chef,so no matter how late we stay,he is always there in the morning to make breakfast ( after I feed him coffee)

   DON'T YOU JUST LOVE CORFU?

I like the hustle and bustle round the town,the sound of greek music everywhere,the view from the balcony,and our resident woodchat shrike on top of the cherry tree.The quiet when I go off for my walks,being able to see my sister every day,fishing from the jetty at Vidos,greek food,ice cream,sweets and cakes.The first view of the island before we land,getting off the plane,seeing our greek friends,having a look round,to make sure everything is where it should be,and generally being on Corfu,not much,really,bobbo

Oh,I nearly forgot,Amstell ,Metaxas,kokoretsi,sqiud,octopus and cuttlefish.

No secks for 2 weeks,nice and restfull
