Nice one. At 17 and in Corfu it would have been the last sunrise of the holiday I would have seen unless a group of us had sat up all night just chatting. As long as there were girls in the group, it could even have been alcohol free. Back then, what a civilising influence girls were.
yes, we sat up all night chatting on the way from Brindisi to Corfu.
I missed an earthquake while I was there, due to my first introduction to Greek wine. The small 4 ounce glass of wine never emptied, much to my amazement, and despite the collection of empty bottles in front of me.
That memory is still a tad hazy. Not sure how I got back to the hotel room that night.
oh, and I'm the one of the civilizing aspects you spoke of -- girl here!
