We woke up to one of our first mornings without an included breakfast! Whatever shall we do?
Jackie was feeling a bit sleepy so I headed out and found a supermarket for some cereal and milk, and a bakery for some croissants.
After brekky we walked down to the port of Corfu along some horrible roads. I don't know if there are just less cars in Turkey, or if it's because the roads in Corfu are so narrow without footpaths, but it felt like there were hundreds of cars zooming by.
Once at the port we went to the offices of Ionion cruises to book a ferry to Albania. Unfortunately we didn't bring our passports so we couldn't by tickets. The ferry leaves at 9 tomorrow morning so cross fingers we can buy tickets tomorrow morning without any dramas.
We spent the rest of the day walking around the Corfu old town which is quite beautiful. Very touristy, with a lot more tourists than we are used to, but still plenty of charming buildings and shops. We did manage to get ripped off for lunch, charged an extra 2euro for bread (didn't order but brought to our table, we said we don't order they left it there...), but it happens right.
At around 4 we caught a local bus back to our hotel, followed by a quick swim. Tonight we are going to have a simple eat in dinner and watch the latest GOT.
