Corfu was beautiful, we had our first day with out rain on the tour!! bonus! as we were out on George's boat. George is a lovely greek man (although slightly un-PC, when i say slightly i mean the most un-PC person i have ever met!) he took us around the island and to swimming spots in the Mediteranian. THat night we went to a greek restaurant and was treated to traditional greek dancing and not so traditional greek food :)
We also had a free day to roam the island in Corfu, they gave us cars (bad idea) and we went to the beach. greek drivers are crazy!!!
we then had a day and a night on a mini cruise ship up the adriattic sea, which most of us spent sleeping off the effects of greece... and the bar!
Yesterday we visited verona and saw the Juliets balcony, and rubbed her boob (...statue) for good luck. verona is a great city, would love to get back there.
today we spent the day in venice, it was a long day which started with a glass making and lace demonstration in the morning, and then we went into St marks basilica at St marks square. we did a little shopping (now to fit it all in my pack!!!)
we got a touch lost, but the locals were very happy to help, including one very smooth waiter named Oscar. we then went on a gondola ride, our "driver" was a little insane, which made staying in the boat a little interesting.
photos to come... promise
