Today we arrived in Corfu. The ship pulled in about 7 am. We had breakfast in the Lido and then headed out to visit. No excursion planned for today and no real walking tours. This was a day of “winging” it.
We walked through the customs and a gentlemen with a carriage offered a ride. I asked how long the ride was and he pulled out his map and showed us all of the places we would visit. “50 minutes”, he said. “She is a good horse”.
After a short ride on the main road we turned down a less traveled street. “Bob Tail” kept her nose to the task and our guide pointed out landmarks along the way.
There was an “old town” and a “new town”. If someone hadn’t pointed that out, we may have not known. Our tour ended near the fortress that we wanted to see. We paid the driver and headed off on foot.
There are so many ruins in Europe it is hard to remember the significance of each set.
