Kerkira, Corfu, Greece–April 28, 2014

Weather today not so good!  But off the ship we went anyway, umbrellas in hand. Took the city bus into the little marketplace.   Cute little village, lots of tourist shops and sidewalk cafés.  
Corfu is the second largest Greek island in the Ionian Sea.   It lies northwest of mainland Greece and serves as a major tourist destination and producer of olive oil and local wines.  Castles abound on this small island.   In fact, the Greek government has dubbed Corfu “castle city” because of its two prominent castles that border the town.

We came across one of many "fish spas".   :)  LOL    Seems the fish nibble on your tootsies to remove the dead skin.   Yuck!   But very popular here.
