Oooh-just had a thought. When we stayed in the posh bit, we said it looked like it should have a couple more floors on it. Is that what they are building? Just looked on Jet2 and they have an "Artists impression" of a 3 story building with swim  up rooms!!

Apparently, lots of work being carried out in the village. Little Prince boutique hotel, making good progress, work the new build on the hill above Kamini, and apparently, Athina hotel, adding more accommodation to the side where the new villas are, all go for the new season ahead.   

Interesting that Athina adding more rooms near the posh ones. We stayed in one this year-our first time at Athina-and they were lovely, but a bit expensive for every year!

In the end the weather was the least of our issues... the first morning I met a lady in our hotel who looked very sorry for herself and she told me she had been to the doctors as there was a stomach bug going round the village... 2 days later I succumbed, 3 days after that so did  DH  :'(  So that took 2 days out of the holiday straight away. I never got out of bed the day after my bout, and DH never left the room after his. Thankfully we had one of the swish new suites at the Athina-if you're going to be ill I couldn't think of a nicer room to be ill in!
And now I'm back at work and thinking "I'd sooner be sick in San Stef than well in work"...

Saw there had been really bad weather this week, and just looking at the long range forecast for next 2 weeks looks rainy every day...do I care?  ::) Nope, cos a rainy day in San Stef is better than a sunny day at work... 8)

Out and About / Corfu Town
« on: September 08, 2024, 09:29:28 PM »
The only previous time we have done a day trip to Corfu Town, we noticed a little land train going from the Spianada. We didn't ride it. (I had learned that day why they tell you NOT to drink the water... :-[)  We are hoping to visit CT again this time-does the land train still run? If so is it worth it?

Does anyone know if Olympia is still doing meals this year? Can't recall seeing anything this year about it. Its currently on our list at least once whilst we are there (nearly single digit dance time  ;D)

Second that request-I dream of their pain au chocolat from
 the Bakery between holidays so any chance to have more of their goodies (and not have to get up at the crack of 11am before they run out/close the bakery!!) is great for me.

For anyone currently out there-Is it really that hot there currently?
The body of an American tourist has reportedly been found on the Greek island of Mathraki, adding to the list of foreigners missing or dead during a record-setting heatwave. (From the BBC)

Yes Nafsika open and up and running. Some changes but lovely.
New restaurant Spetseriko opposite little Prince is lovely. Really enjoyed our meal with lovely young hosts. Would recommend booking. Normal prices.
Windy today but heatwave expected next week. Lovely x

Is that in what used to be the little shop (Vasia?) Or on the wasteland next to it?
