Title: Summer 2018
Post by: Lesley on March 26, 2018, 07:03:38 PM
Well I have to say there are welcoming sounds above as we hear Jets in the sky coming over the NW part of the island last night and again today either before descending to Corfu airport or flying by as they head further South to the other Ionian Islands knowing summer is just around the corner.
Now all we need is the weather to understand at long last summer is here, well almost.  Out and about today I saw some chaps on bikes and also in the local supermarket a lady from I think Austria.  Lovely to see people out of the 'sunbeds and sun' holidays and no doubt they will enjoy the beautiful Spring Flowers all popping through now wherever you walk or cycle to.........
Weather wise though is still rather dismal grey and damp.......on a positive note they forecast is 21c for this Friday we live in hope too as it will soon be the main season too..........

Hi everyone,
Most of you probably don't know us much, but this year will be our 4th consecutive 'Summer Holiday' in San Stefanos. We almost always come in the 2nd week in September-just 6 weeks and 6 days to go now-to our 'paradise' resort staying in Mythos Apartments.
This year we are bringing reinforcements! Our neighbours Kate and June have listened to our tales of warmth, hospitality, beauty and excellent food and hope all lives up to expectation when they join us on Monday 10th September for 7 nights.
We have simple needs, great food, [I have been dieting since January in readiness for my San Stefanos holiday!] we love the beach and being in the sea and with that 'Waves' hospitality, their excellent snacks, music and lunches on the beach. We usually have Breakfast in Barras-very early. We also take it in turns to choose an eating place each evening for our meal. We also take in a few trips from San Stefanos Travel. At the end of the break we tour the gift shops. The other thing we all love and need from this holiday is sleep. So it's early to bed [mostly I'm shattered by 9pm!!!] 46 weeks of supermarket work can be relieved in one week in San Stefanos-bliss. And theres nothing like waking up with the cocks crowing around 6am, taking a cappucino on to the patio in front of our appartment, sitting in my shorts and watching the pool being cleaned and listening to 'nothing' but nature. Love it! Love it! Love it!....So if you see two roundish guys, with bright shirts, broad sunhats, olive green ruck-sacks, Sainsburys yellow 'beach'-bags with two lovely ladies hobbling along-heading for the beach-thats us!!!....See you all soon....Clive and Graham

What a lovely post, Clive and Graham. You sum up life in San Stefanos, perfectly! This is why we all keep returning, 14 years for us now. I hope you and your friends enjoy your holiday, maybe give us a little update, we have never been in September, so would be interested to hear your reviews. :)
