How busy has j2 been in a week

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 09:52:25 GMT

Have only been away a week and every-ones posting, snow must be on the way. :lol: Got back from Kefalonia last night, had the most incredible time. For those of you who had Kefalonia on their hit lists for next Summer. Dont hesitate, it was wonderful. I have found the place I will retire to.

Hi Rose and welcome to J2Ski - have you been here before? :wink:

Since you've been gone, since you've been gone... oh no, hang on... we've been attacked by Chinese show sellers, Bulgarian chancers and a dog! 120 newcomers have signed up (say hello) and 100,000 visitors have passed through...

And it snowed.

Apart from that, same old, same old... :D

Hi Rose, hope you had a lovely time. Think the flakes are falling and everyone is getting excited.

Yay, winters on the way! :D

Not sold in Pharmacy but I find hob nail boots do the trick. Saw Admins leg, not nice its probably why I am scared of dogs.

Hi Rose, glad you are back, it was very quiet last week, can't imagine why!

Hi Dave, he may not be going, he has a difficult time with his Father right now, and I can not really get involved. I am cross 'cos I think he should go he does enjoy it. I'll keep you posted if he goes.

Hi Rose

Glad you enjoyed Kafalonia, I thought you would!
You cant go wrong with a lot of the Greek Islands but Kef is one seriously beautiful place.

Where did you stay, and where did you get round to visiting?
What was the weather like this time of year? Friends of mind are next door (sort of) in Corfu this week...

Needless to say we will be back to Kef next year but not at that time of year, if only we had gone 2 weeks early. Not only is the weather very changeble lots of taverna's etc have closed for the winter. Nonethe less it was a fantastic place. Hired a car for the week and travelled around the entire Island, clocked up 700 miles, of which Hubby said was a pleasure driving around. Kef has the most beautiful beaches, coves, fishing ports but the Mountains are lovely with breathtaking views and really scary roads to drive around.
We stayed at Trapezaki near Lourdas. We had a 4 storey villa on top of a hill absolutely surrounded by the sea on 3 sides and the mountains on the other. We went to Scala,Poros,Sami,Litherto,Svoronata, Argostli,Myrtos beach,Katelios, Assos, Lassi,Fiskardo, Lixouri. Visited the Drogarati caves, The underground Lakes at Mellisani. Lots of mountain villages. The people are the friendliest you walk along and acknowledge some-one and they fish an orange or apple out of their bags, you walk past some-ones garden they offer you fruit from their trees. you buy in Mini markets and when you get home they have put some sweets or a small bottle of Ouzo in. Eat a couple of times in the same taverna and they present you with a bottle of wine to take home. The food in cafes and taverna's is top notch, every thing in markets is so fresh.
Coming home check in at the airport is 3 hours so you check your bags in and 'cos you still have your car you go off out and about,or sunbathe in the gardens or a taverna just outside which has a pool.

Wonderful place, never thought I would get Hubby to enjoy mountains without snow, but he loved it.
We will be doing some research about selling up and moving there, thats how much we loved it.
