San Stefanos Online ~ North West Corfu

I remember looking at this a while ago, in that day dreaming sort of way, where you only consider the upsides, and none of the downs. It's been on the market for some time now, and with the current strength of sterling, it does look like quite good value. However, it will take proper hard work and dedication to make it pay well, and when I'm in the village I do become a little lazy. Not for me. I do miss Elpitha though, at the time it was probably my favourite eatery in the village.

My monies on Fedra Mare.

Good on you, you became our very own conduit right into the village from all our remote locations, and I for one still read them even whilst I was there.

Well done, a sterling effort.

We didn't, I was fretting too much about making sure we got to Dusseldorf in good time. We will however be going here in November: Noël Cuvelier's Rural Supermarket (which also sells a lot of beer! And I mean alot) Abelestationsplein 30, 8970 Poperinge West Flanders (on the D984/N38)

Have to say that the web cam images today have made me envious of anyone who's there at the minute.

Intended calling in there this year for a beer at least, and then never did. Can't put my finger on it, but it just never appeals for some reason. And then once I'm back, I regret not calling in, stupid isn't it.

Now, I know I am slow, so before we go anywhere, perhaps you lot already know this, but have you explored the village and surrounding area with the google street view facility on the map? It's briilliant.

I wanted to check the position of the track in the middle of nowhere between Agios Stefanos and Avliotes that makes it's way towards the coast. Not only is it marked on the map, but you can "virtually" stand at the point that it starts, once you use street view.

If you've ever wondered want the village is like out of season, on a sunny day, take a look, I found it fascinating. Not many people around, I counted two, and everything appears very much closed, apart from the door into Dino's old house, (bless him), opposite Olympia.

I know, I've got too much time on my hands.

Done.
