I'm arriving in Corfu on July 1st at 7:00 pm. I'd like to spend a few days on the island before heading to Albania on the 5th. I understand the ferry will probably leave at 9:00 am and I'll have to be there early to clear customs. I'm currently looking at the Pink Palace- it seems like a pretty "energetic" hostel, which should put me in that holiday mood at the beginning of my trip! I also looked at Sunrock, but I think PP would be better for me. Are there any other hostels worth considering? Then, I'm also wondering about my options for getting from PP to the ferry terminal in the morning. Any ideas?

We were just there, should have grabbed a business card. There is a local jeweler that creates unique and funky gold jewelry with precious and semi-precious stones. He owns a small little gallery with 3 other artists and the store has a very distinct orange interior on the North side of the street. There were 3 or 4 glass display boxes with rings and earrings and the rest were on the walls. It was very small store and the sidewalk in front was skinny. We walked west from V Dousmani but we were swisted in the streets. The gentleman speeks English and has a small daughter that was there that day, about 10-11 years old. My mother in law is kicking herself for not buying the ring she saw and I would like to surprise her for Christmas. Thanks for any hints you can provide.
