OUR VISIT

We are here this morning after breakfast. For many of my Greek friends this is their first visit up here.

We are driven to (throni) first, and the view is stunning. The beautiful vegetation of the area and the whole atmosphere of the place ...

We stayed in Polis for the morning and left after a last lunch at one of the restaurants in town. We were sorry to leave Polis, it's a lovely little place, so relaxed and quiet, we got very comfortable there! We headed off down to Paphos and looked around the Fort & the ruins of Old Paphos before watching a stunning sunset over the sea, having dinner in the harbour and heading back to the airport to fly home...

... quite close to it further along. Spent the day here chilling on the beach in the sun & swimming in the Med - what more do you need?! There's a lovely harbour in Latsis with a mix of fishing & pleasure boats. We walked around it in the morning and returned for sunset. There are a number of restaurants along the harbour front with lots of fresh fish options, it's a really nice place to have dinner.

... across the mountains. And this began Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. Now, if
you have read previous entries I'm new to driving on the left. And
I'm was new driving around mountains...and on gravel....dirt
roads.....and the like. As you will see from the pictures the views
were stunning but the journey to cover a mere 20 kilometres took us
close to two hours. It was exciting in the end and the views were

... but the not so
deep down parts tell me to freak out. To panic. This is why I often
spend hours at airports. It gives me a sense of security, of calm
before I fly to sit down at the gate and know I have an hour to kill
before boarding. This was not going to be the case today.

The train took half an hour to Gatwick
so we arrived at 8am at the South Terminal. Our flight was departing
from the North Terminal. By the time we ...

... the town has been kept quite far back from the beach so it's not all hemmed-in with high-rise hotels. It's a nice beach & we settled down on some sun loungers for the day. We had lunch at the beach bar which was pretty awful food (burgers, pizzas - nothing Greek!) and swam in the beautiful sea. It wasn't too crowded but I imagine it gets absolutely heaving in-season, it is a very nice beach.

... of my childhood when with my parents and especially my dad who used to LOVE TRAVELING like me, would bring us to this village and even spend one or two nights at a certain restaurant for lunch or dinner.. The restaurant owner had one or two rooms to let, and my dad arranged each time we were up here, to spend the night in one, just to be next to the river and hear the ...
