Corfu

We got a taxi to the airport this morning for the short hop to Corfu. The airport was closed – locked up,  nobody in sight. After a while a few staff began to turn up and eventually we got into the building. There were no other passengers at all.

Our check – in girl confirmed our suspicions – we are the only passengers today. Anyhow, our plane arrived on time and we hopped on. There were already a dozen or so passengers on board who had caught the plane at its previous stop on Kefalonia.
Bye bye Preveza.

The flight took 20 minutes. Here’s our little plane.

Corfu is nice. People have been fighting over it for the past 1500 years so it is heavily fortified.

Lots of Venetian influence, as well as British – there’s a cricket pitch on the right of the photo.

Also a popular stop for the cruise ships.
