“Other countries may offer you discoveries in manners or lore or landscape; Greece offers you something harder – the discovery of yourself” Lawrence Durrell – ‘Prospero’s Cell’
Some claim that Corfu is a Shakespearian island and the setting for what scholars believe to be his final play ‘The Tempest’ and the path took us through an olive grove with gnarled black trunks each with a knotted witch hiding in the branches and it was all rather like walking through Act 4, Scene 1 of Macbeth.

Your description is getting downright poetic here. The meals sound devine, too. Another wonderful vicarious adventure!

Yes, I liked the poetry…’pasty legged new arrivals’…? Meaning not yet tanned, or fatty, unhealthy and filled with unidentifiable Cornish substances? Either way I like it!

Andrew, is there a ship from Corfu to some city near Meteora, where we can rent a car and drive to Meteora?

Hi Victor. According to my ferry schedule there is a boat from Corfu to the mainland port of Igoumenitsa and then it is 175 kilometres to Meteora.
