Yours truly - Sunday evening |
Yesterday's [Sunday's]day at sea was relaxing although last evening we had the distressing news that someone had tried to break into our home while the house sitter was out. A back door was kicked in, but fortunately, the alarm system went off and must have scared the thieves away. Other than the damage to the door, nothing was stolen or damaged. A contractor will be replacing the door with a much more break in proof door.

West coast of Corfu |
Today we spent a wonderful day on Corfu on the northwest coast of Greece. First we visited a monastery founded in 1220 on the west coast of the island on a high peak (the photo above is a sample of the view). Next we visited a palace built by Elizabeth, Empress of Austria (she was on the throne when my father's parents live in Austria before emigrating to America). Our last stop was in the old town area of the town of Corfu which dates from when the island was a part of Venice empire.

Old fortress - Corfu |
NOTE: I apologize for the low level of posting, but the satellite Internet aboard the ship is horribly slow and it is very, very difficult to upload photos. In fact, I could not get any posts to load yesterday.

Beautiful! What a wonderful trip!
Sorry about the door, that sucks. Glad you had a noisy alarm.
Peace <3
