Clickety clack as the poor little wheels on our suitcases struggle with the rough paving of Corfus old town. Our last morning in Albania proceeded uneventfully. The rented car is returned without any drama and we get the stamp from immigration and settled down for the 70 minute ferry across to Corfus Island which belongs to Greece. On clearing Greek formalities we were initially told it is a 10 minute walk to our apartment. We are on our way and it becomes evident that he true distance was 25 minutes. Coupled with erratic Google maps instructions we do a big loop through the old town and it is a sweaty 40 minute walk dragging our suitcases. Fortunately those little wheels survived the ordeal.
The afternoon restored our faith in this place with an exquisite old town, palace and the sublime old fort. The latter has layer upon layer of history. Built initially by the Greeks added to buy the Venetians and finally the British in the 1800s. Absolutely beautiful!
