... interested in visiting the Cypriot capital of Nicosia, known as Europe’s last divided city since 1974 when the Greek Cypriot National Guard ousted the president provoking Turkey to send troops to protect their interests on the island. Since then, a Green Line has divided the Turks in the north and the Greeks in the south.

Highlights of Cyprus

1. At the Cathedral of St. John in Nicosia, we saw the most amazing paintings ...

The plane landed, and i got off the plane to feel the heat radiating off of the airport tarmac. absolutely loved the heat after hacking and caughing with a nasty sickness in england.
Luke and his dad were at the airport in larnaca to great me as planed and i was super pumped to spending time with luke and soaking up some major sun. luke and i had met back in 2003 whilst ...

... where the flavor and architecture of the city changed within steps. Here it was a border checkpoint with armed soldiers at the end of this Ledra Street that brought me into a world that I never even knew existed when I woke up this morning.

No border formalities to cross in or out of Cyprus proper exist but the Turkish Republic has its owned formalities. Instead of stamping passports, the guards stamp a piece of paper since this is ...

... pool anyway? I've given up on Turkish coffee. It's lousy, far inferior to its counterparts in Georgia and Armenia. Maybe that's why everybody drinks Nescafe... at $2 a pop! You don't want to know the price of real fresh-squeezed espresso... no, you don't. My room's killer, though. I wish I had my laptop, or my wife. At least I can get the laptop fixed... for a price... hopefully in my next stop, Istanbul.

... is certainly a great place to vacation in the early fall. Late October and early November was still quite warm to our standards, but the tourist season was over for Eurpeans so it was a good place to vacation as it was moderately priced.

At times we were actually in the clouds, which were racing at tremendous speed and, as Compo dropped back to do a bit of video, he soon lost sight of the rest as they disappeared into the cloud. By this time, those who had warmer clothes ...

Two or three times I visited Kakopetria, with the choir, but the coach was so huge that it was not possible to enter the village, so every time I happened to be up here it was just seeing Kakopetria through a distance. So this time I really wanted to WALK THE VILLAGE.



KYKKOS

We went up to Kykkos Monastery at first, which lies ...

... ruins. At Kourion, we marveled at the spacious honey-colored amphitheater, and we gawked at the intricate tile mosaics that have miraculously been preserved over eons of time. One of our favorite mosaics was located in the so-called Achilles' House; it depicted Achilles' mother dressing her son up as a girl in his effort to dodge service in the Trojan War. His plan was foiled by the wily Odysseus, who suspected the disguise and confirmed his suspicions by tempting the female ...

... on the road out number locals. Passed through villages with local specialties displayed on trestle tables up to the highest town, Trodos. In winter this town and surrounding area transforms into a ski resort and come 5.00pm I could feel the chilly bite of the mountain breeze. The campsite at 1650m was superb, if not a bit chilly. Carpets were laid out to pitch tens on and the facilities are spotless ...
