26th May
 
Needed to find a post office to send off some post to the girls and actually found the main post office a short distance from where we had anchored! The situation here is Perfect and Mark is really happy because he can have a cup of coffee in a little place opposite to where we are moored.
Had a swim and just managed to get back to the boat before the heavens opened up.We really had quite a downpour but on the positive side it gave 'Rafiki" a good wash down.
 
27th May
Decided to have a cultural day and take in some sights.Visisted the "Old Town" and the Fort which sits impressively above the town.
Corfu has come as a bit of a surprise to us as we were expecting a really touristic town with lots of English influence!!Surfice it to say it is really quite a lovely town and relatively unspoilt varying styles of architecture reflects its  history.This was Homers "beautiful and rich land".
