San Stefanos Online ~ North West Corfu

Easy jet flights out up  till 31st may 2015

Well that's us pencilled in at Anatoli May and September 2015 yeah

Woke up to cloud this morning so took the opportunity to walk to the brewery whilst it wasn' t hot. Brewery tours on Sat 11.0am till 1.0am. Sampled the ginger beer and a red bitter type then walked back for lunch in Mistral. Feel very very sorry for manthos, mistral and waves. The state of the beach must be killing them. Hopefully money will be found somewhere to enable the seaweed to be removed. In the meantime the sun has come out so back to blue skies.

Easy Jet flights are up for Sept 2014 onwards. Just booked ours and for each way for friends. We had to pay more as we had booked our outward flights earlier we were just waiting to book return. Paid more than our friends for return flight and £2 more for upfront seating. What a con.

Have found a backpack type bag on ebay which is 50x40x20 Easy Jets new sized bag. Have bought 2 as we don't intend taking cases when we return in September, just hand luggage.

Has anyone else discovered 'Incognito' mossie repelent? Not wanting to use a deet  based one which they nearly all seem to be, on myself or young granddaughter I found this 100% natural  one in Holland & Barretts. Not one bite whilst in San Stef and I usually get eaten alive. Seems to have brilliant reviews online when I looked. Apparently you can also get shampoo, soap, incense sticks and aftersun. Not cheap but for me well, well worth it. My husband who rarely gets bit used one of the popular deet based ones and they happily munched on  him. Will def buy more for when we return in September.

We arrived yesterday(Saturday) so far had lunch in waves and dinner at little prince then today lunch in mistral and dinner at zorbas.first auction for Sun beds 26th May (quite late) so in the mean time restaurants putting their own out. Got the impression impressiontalking to them they r pretty fed up the weather has been so nice yet people not using the beach cos of no beds. So far a handful outside manthos, 20 or so outside mistrial, similar outside waves. Haven't walked along the beach but but looks to be a row in front of Athena and then mango. Lovely weather very warm but nice breeze from inland though too strong for umbrellas. Prices pretty much as last year. Little prince seems the busiest. Fireflies evident oh yes and my granddaughter won the Eurovision sweep!
