Corfu day 2……and rain

So it essentially rained our second day at Corfu ruining any chances of personal sightseeing but we still had to go on the pre arranged bus tour of the town. Here are the pictures i took.



 

After our day of sightseeing, we all (the staff that is) stayed in and at night we had a bowling tournament in which i came in 4th at first and then 3rd i think for the second round. It was fun!!! I really think i am going to take up bowling when i get back because i think i have untapped skills in that area.
The next morning it was time to leave so i made sure to go out onto the private beach one last time and get pictures of the sun breaking out of the clouds. It was absolutely beautiful and i’m glad i was able to witness and capture it all before i left. That last morning made up for the fact that i didn’t get to tour the town like i wanted and the fact that the weather had made me sick. More so, watching the sun over the water is one of the most humbling experiences in the world to me. You become very conscious of your tiny existence in the grand scheme of the world. You see how even something like the sun rising or setting is still beautiful despite how trite and commonplace it is. And the biggest lesson of all is that you learn not to worry about anything because if the sun can rise and set everyday then there’s really nothing to worry about.
The journey back h0me to Thessaloniki was just as beautiful as the journey to Corfu. Memories were made along the way and overall, even though some aspects of this job might be frustrating and aggravating, getting to see another part of this beauty of the world and being able to be immersed in it make it worth it.
