Team dinner and Corfu

So the team dinner was in celebration of winning the team of the month...now this was because we got nominated for the whole passport issue....you might remember...and we won...so our entire team was invited to go to one of the inclusive a la carte restaurants on the ship...the ones we are not go eat at....so for starters i had the smoked salmon tartar with avo, yummy....then the seared salmon and also shrimp risotto(i was on a salmon mission) and for dessert the cheese platter.....the food was good, not amazing but good....the tartar was very good though....so we also all got a little star...see pics below.....

The next day it was Corfu....finally i got a chance to go out in Corfu....yay...first crew drill then Corfu...the drill ended at 11:30 and crew onboard was 14:30, always an hour before we sail.....we decided to walk to town and our mission was to dip our feet in the ocean....the town was a 30min walk, which we knew, and it was so hot, on the way we of course took many photos...lots also posing....then we decided to go on our mission and find a beach...10min later we found one....very cool....But first some pics before getting to the beach...

Then it was time for the beach....We took many many posing photos cause Dina wants to improve her photography skills, was lots of fun....then feet dipping ended up in a sim in my underwear...it was black...so n problem, the problem was afterwards, no towel and just my clothes, but weather was so hot that i dried very quickly...was fund..of course no visit is complete without...you guessed it macchiato or cappucino...this time it was cappucino, so good...but not like Mykonos...foam there still takes the cherry.....afterwards it was a fast paced walk back to the ship...time was a little tight....made it...we squeezed in gym and we both started work at 16:00, man superwoman, haha.....work was only until 8pm, halelouia.....some pics to make you jealous....So this week is Santorini and this time i changed with someone...but tomorrow more about that.....

Podere il Casale

Beautiful place near Monticchiello in the Southern Tuscany. My parents, together with Mutti and Sofia went there whilst Kim and I were in Corsica. They raved about it, stating that it was Swiss owned and they met the couple who owns and runs it. They are actively involved and so are their children. Their food is produced on the farm, they are famous for their Pecorino cheese. They also offer Pizza and bread courses, camping etc etc....in fact i was really looking forward to visiting this place. They have outdoor and indoor seating but i must say the outdoor seating cannot be compared to the indoor hall. The outside is quaint, picturesque and has breath-taking views. There is quite a long dirt road following up to Podere il Casale....its not so easily found. The sign at the entrance is also not too good. Once we parked a beautiful sign welcomed us....let me share a pic... Podere il Casale As mentioned the place was quaint and picturesque with beautiful laid tables....and a fabulous vi...
