1266 - Balkan ball-aches

Spent so much time today reading through guides
Looking at maps of Greece and that corner
Of South-East Europe where it lies beside
Albania and Macedonia
Kosovo, Serbia, Bulgaria
I fly to Athens second week in May
Twelve days to fill; today, tried to choose where
To go in that time. I’m well on the way:
Most of the islands are too far away
So mainly, I’ll stick to the mainland. I’d
Like to see Santorini and Hydra
But can’t do; can do Corfu in one day
Very quickly by ferry. Terrified
Of driving there, specially Albania!
