Another Year

(1/5) > >>

benson:
Another season is around the corner and it won't be long before the forum is full of the same old questions:
Which will be first??

First Meal - It doesn't matter, food is great everywhere

Best Restaurant - Everyone will have a favourite (I'm a Nafsika guy)

Cash Points - yes there a 2, but everywhere accepts cash, cards, chickens and goats.

Exchange Rates - Please stop trying to save .00001 of a euro, it'll drive you mad!

Hills - Yes there are a couple, I’d only ever bother climbing the one to Akrotiri and Gravia.

Wasps and Mosquitoes - Yes, sorry.

Arillas - Hmmm really, not for me.

Local Beer - Yes very nice, aren’t most Ice Cold Beers nice when it's 35 degrees plus?

Trips - It's worth booking with Noula just to see the girls!

Whatever you do you will have a great holiday,

Benson, (30 year veteran)

Excellent Benson but as a Newbie ( this will only be our tenth visit) love to see the excitement and anticipation of newcomers asking questions and wondering if they've made the right choice for their holiday we know they have but it's nice to reassure. PS this year will be our first visit in July will it be warm :-)

Dupnica:
THIS YEAR can we hope that Corfu Airport may have abandoned their system of scanning your luggage which they introduced a few years ago
For those not familiar with this particular form of Greek torture it works like this.  First you check in at the appropriate desk and have your cases weighed then you drag/carry said cases across the other queues of departing guests,being careful not to crunch any bare toes on the way,
next you hoist your cases onto the scanner which is a good two feet off the floor to have them X rayed. As these machines are usually manned ,or should that be personned,by young ladies don't expect any help(in these days of high unemployment in Greece could there be an opening here for
a couple of strong young men)?  Those of us who are not as fit or as young as we once were have a real problem , I keep expecting someone to collapse with a slipped disc or worse.
I appreciate the need for security and I am grateful that they are so diligent but in other airports aren't the scanners on the main conveyer belt
behind the check in desks?

debra:
July will be HOT HOT HOT
