Corfu - Civvie spotter paradise

Post by SilverWingPix »

On october 2nd I suddenly found my self on the Greek Island paradise of Corfu. What a lovely place! Not just the aeroplanes, but the scenery, the atmospher, the people - just a really really nice place. Next time I´ll go for more than a day.

Cafe Royal provides the perfect morning (till noon) spot - I´ll let the images speak for themselves:

Beautiful selection of shots - great to see a bit of everything rather than all from the same location. Very nice composures.

That cafe is just incredible - what a place to spend the morning!
