I was dark, no more pale Nadine.

Para-sailing, donuts, chair boats, water skis, you name it and it was there! I was very keen on chilling in the water and not doing any water sports; however, I am also a sucker for peer pressure and so I ended up doing donuts with a few of the other girls in my group.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-27288\" title=\"Watersports-Corfu\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.heynadine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/574642_10151145656586967_531346269_n-600x450.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Watersports- Corfu, Greece\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/33736956@N08\/7645968744\/\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Watersports- Corfu, Greece\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8158\/7645968744_cb3b067004_b.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>We all fell off.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That evening we went out for a traditional Greek feast and dancing.
