OK, I know I get on this website and want to see what everyone is doing.  But how do you talk your husband into going to Corfu 2 years in a row.  I took him there for our honeymoon last summer for his first time (my third), and want to go back this summer. I know it's a long way.  But I would much rather go there than Mexico, or anywhere else as a matter of fact!!. Being American we have a selective choice of vacation scenes.  I want everyone to encourage my husband to go back with me and give great massive reasons about why he should go.  If it doesn't work, well, you don't even want to know! Thank you for you support!!!

Hi Jules,

This should be easy for you, if you explain we were there on our honeymoon so (I hope for your sake) "you" did not see much of Corfu, and as I have been there three times I would like to show you around.

I would have thought you being a woman what I said above woud have been easy for you to have worked out what to have said to get your own way! [}:)]

Good luck with your vacation in Corfu,

TheChef

Hi Jules,

I'm also taking my husband to Corfu for our first wedding anniversary!  I have been there about 5 times and lived there for one season. 

I'm afraid i didn't give my husband much choice as i booked it as a suprise for him which i gave to him for Christmas, he was really chuffed and is looking forward to his first trip there. 

Maybe it's an idea?

Good luck, Steph

Blimey Jules... it`s easy, after 30 years in the "wow darling what a great idea you just had" club.... any of the following will do..

At all times however, you need to have Greek music softly playing (we are talking subliminal) Greek cooking and then follow up with one or more of these....

1) Oh darling.... our wedding day and honeymoon were the happiest days ever.... let`s recreate that special time for our 1st anniversary.....

2) just book it anyway and hand him the ticket as an anniversary pressie, but do it quick before he does the same to you with a ticket to Mexico....

3) "If you loved me you would"...... You have got to be pretty mean to use that one...

4) Withhold all "wifely" duties.... claiming that you can only manage it in Corfu...

5) Start discussing Divorce Lawyers....

6) Would Mexico really be that bad??? I have been going to Corfu for 22 years this year and will be moving over permanantly in October.... all my husbands idea of course but we have, in that time travelled to many, many other countries, surely, so long as you are both together thats all that matters?

Good luck.

Are you sure about that or is it what we want you to think?   The end result is still that we girls get our way.

Hi  Jules - 

You've got some good ideas here - anyway you asked about "what's my rush?"  My last trip to my beloved island was 10 years ago.. ..... First was in 1979 to visit my sister-in-law who lived there. A  Corfiot man saved my life that year, and I've been back 7 times since then - I've always fantasized about bringing a lover with me one day - but alas, that has never come about -   So I do know how you feel  (wanting to share something you  love with someone you love)  When it is meant to be, it will be.  If you force things, they break.   (But you might try playing a lot of Greek music and making Greek food for dinner ) to remind him of the wonderful time you shared there....that might help (I'm on you side, really - but try to make it come about naturally - don't push) GOOD LUCK - Love and light, Carin


Carin,
I see you definately aren't rushing things.  I was just being a big baby! It's funny you mentioned playing Greek music and making Greek food.  My husband loves my Greek salads.  Last week I bought all of the ingredients to make one, but we've been on different schedules so I haven't been able to share it with him (I work nights).  We did manage to get on the ipod website together.  I suggested Greek music CD's and we found some really good ones.  We listed to the music for a little while.  He enjoys it as much as I do. You're right about pushing things.  It will get old.  I told him that too the other day.  I was going to show him what everyone has said about my comment.  He thought it was funny and knows I really want to go.  I am hoping for the beginning of July. So, it's not written in stone, yet.  I just don't want to go with anyone else.  Ok, I better stop writing.   Thank you so much for your  advice! Have a great time this summer!

You have a glorious summer too - and count your blessings.   Wishing you the best time wherever you wind up.  By the way, In 1986 I took my two girls (8 and 10 yrs. old) to Long Beach to see the Queen Mary and the Spruce Goose - what a great vacation that was.... Unforgettable.  Love and light, Carin

  I agree with you country boy,,, There is NO WAY I would want to be with any man in Corfu who doesn't want to be there. This vacation is doomed before it starts.       Keira
