Over to Paxos

---

Left Corfu on Monday on the ferry to the small island Paxos. The crossing took about an hour and was relatively smooth but chaotic on arrival at the small port at Gaios, the main town on the island. Our luggage was hurled out onto the quay with the resultant scramble to retrieve one's belongings. The island is delightful with a very relaxed atsmosphere radiating all round. A definite lack of hustle and bustle and an ideal venue for chilling out. Sitting in a taverna in the town square taping away over a coffee having picked up a wi-fi signal. Lynne has gone off browsing round the shops, which should not take too long.
Tomorrow we are off on a boat trip round the island, which takes in a visit to a nearby island called Anti Paxos which has a couple of tavernas alongside a sandy beach. More on this trip to follow.

Weather differences
Hello Lynne and John...just loved the pics of your latest travel blogg. We are at the mercy of the weather right now as all of NZ has been experiencing a massive storm. After the earthquake in Chch this is just the latest in a string of disasters. Don't know what happened to our spring. Just closed my eyes and imagined I was there with you and enjoying the weather and change of scenery.
