My phone weather forecast (more than one of them) kept saying that it would be thunderstorms all week. It was totally wrong. The first day we had a storm out at sea, but only an hour of rain in the resort. The rest of the week has been sun and clouds. We've been sunbathing all week and in and out of the pool all week. So all in all i'd say it's been a very good week. More sun than cloud !
We were self catering, so decided to eat out for every meal. English breakfast cost between 3 and 5 Euros depending on where we had breakfast. We usually had snacks until evening meal and paid under 10 Euros for a small steak and about 7 Euros for mixed gyros and chips. Ribeye & T-bone steak cost a bit more. Desserts were about 4 Euros in the places we ate on the main strip.
Our apartment was selling six large bottles of water for 2 Euros (it's about 1.80 in the supermarkets) and the local lager 2.50 per pint. Out and about the pints were cheap enough and i don't think i had a bad pint.
One thing i did notice was that all the bars had the acts on at the same time every night. You couldn't go from bar to bar watching different acts because they were all on at the same time.
We did a trip to Corfu Town on Friday. It was only 7 Euros on the coach and well worth it. We got some fab photos and had some time sat in one of the little cafes people watching. We got dropped off next to the new fort and walked through the many small streets to the old fort at the other side. Two cruise ships were in on Friday while we were looking around.
Other trips that can be done, but we didn't do are :-
Aqualand - 25 E
Corfu Town by boat - 20 E
Paxos & Antipaxos - 28 E
Albania - 20 E
Glass bottom boat - 15 E
That's about it for trips. I know they did more, but can't remember the prices.
Oh and cigs are about 40 euros for 200
Should have taken more time typing this out. I've just put it down as i think of it.

The words had no spaces between them.
