Time to swim and chill out in Greece. Not to forget some Greek dancing. A toga party. And, an overnight ferry!

I loved our short stay on the laid back island of Corfu. Definitely a tourist, beach town with nice stores and some great scenery. Our hotel was a bit out of town - and after a mere 180 crumbling greek stairs and a small hill...we were at our 'villa'! It had great views of the water though. Thankfully the climb was good for something! For breakfast we had to go down the 180 stairs and back up another 125 (ok...I was getting frustrated...so I counted!). Let's just say you didn't want to forget anything in your room!

Time for a toga party...

Hooray Greek food!

One night we went out for Greek dinner and dancing. There was sooo much food. Cheese, meat, bread...umm...I irrationally ate again. Too much. Then we had Greek entertainment -singers, dancers, and then we joined in a few times for some disastrous 'greek' dancing - even though I was more of a dance floor nightmare - but it was a ton of fun.

The second night we had a toga party at our hotel which was pretty fun as I've never really worn a toga before. Had a good night of dancing and then we were off running the next day again.
