The ferry over to Greece was delayed so we missed a day of sailing. It was a massive ferry over and a fairly smooth journey even though some of our group got sea sick - we suspect it wasn't the sea that caused it more to do with the on-board bar. Once we arrived in Greece the bus drove us further a few more hours down the coast where we saw our sail boats! Well to tell you all the truth, we didn't think WE would be the sailors! We thought we would have experienced sailors doing it all for us, and that all we had to do was soak up the sun... he he he. Well that wasn't the case, because there was only one guy (Fraser) to teach us all how to sail! The ... read more

It was another amazing breakfast this morning as we all stuffed ourselves silly in preparation for our full day on the water. We were all warned about George, the operator of the boat we were about to board. He was a perverted old man but was loads of fun and laughs. We got off bus and walked towards the docks. I was wondering which boat we were going to get on. I saw this dinky little thing and was hoping that wasn't the boat. Sure enough, George was heading towards this boat. It was so small that I was beginning to wonder if we could safely carry all 45 of us aboard. No life rafts either! After seeing Titanic, this was a big deal to me. We all boarded and most of us headed towards ... read more

I was jarred awake this morning at an ungodly hour by the sounds of someone in my room yelling at me to wake up. "30 minutes until docking" he was yelling. The nerve of this guy to enter my cabin unannounced to wake me up. I was still able to hear him as he went down the hall yelling at all the other passengers to wake up. Not wanting to be left behind, I quickly ran in the shower and gathered my things. We docked in the port town of Igoumentisa. From here, we were to catch another ferry that would take us to Corfu town. It was still dark outside and everyone was still half asleep as we were disembarking. We walked along with our suitcases to the port terminal where we were to ... read more

Greetings everyone from the Pink Palace, this place is pretty amazing. Truth be told, I haven't really done anything but drink and lay out at the beach since I've been here, my life sucks doesn't it!!! Staying here for a few more days and then taking a bus from here to Athens where I will probably stay for 2 days, then on to Ios and maybe Santorini. Don't really have much else to say, hopefully I'll be able to send some pics from Athens. Till then, Mike... read more

I arrived in Corfu Greece (it's an island to the northeast of the mainland of Greece) 4 days ago and spent 3 full days here. It is again another great spot. The water is crystal blue and the beaches are great. Yesterday we went on a boat ride around the island (it's huge) and hung out on a few beaches around the island. It was just my tour group on a private boat so it was really cool (but crowded, there were 25 of us on medium sized boat) I went to this beach today with one of the ladies on my trip, her name's Suzanne (she's from NY and we've decided that she and i will definitely have to go travelling together again). The beach we were at today is called Ag. Gordios. One of ... read more
