... the Greek flag. <br><br>The streets are bedecked with flags, people wearing their formal clothes, parents with their younger children, all waiting for the parade to come, to admire their children, and feel this unique moving moment. <br><br>We are out in the streets and free to have a stroll in this beautiful picturesque village of Lefkara. My Greek friends are interested to see this popular embroidery, others want to visit the museum ...

... was very friendly and helpful. The local beer was very nice. Keo. The waiter showed us some other places on our map to go visit while we walked around. Had a look at a local fruit and vege market which was quite good but much the same as ours only with a few different products like dates, little fish etc. Headed back on the shuttle at 2pm which was long enough. Had a rest and then went to Oasis to watch sail out. Clocks back 1 hour and I don't know why.

... way out is to go to the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and try and get a ferry to main land Turkey. We have tried asking people in the Republic about this, but this is taboo. No one in the Republic (except our drunk hostelier, who really doesn't give reliable information) will talk about Northern Cyprus let alone tell you how to get out of there. <br><br>OH! and by the way the rule is ...

<br>Friday, July 3rd,<br>2009&#8212;Troodos and Limassol<br>On the drive to Limassol we decided to<br>take the detour through the Troodos mountains in hopes of seeing some<br>nice scenery and perhaps the painted churches of Troodos. <br>Unfortunately all we discovered were poorly signed roads and more<br>winding mountain highway. The ride was spectacular but a little<br>disappointed once we had reached Troodos. It ...

50 weeks ago, I did something that ****** Lucy off. I went one country in front of her, and for the last 50 weeks, I have had to listen to her, how she needed to catch up, I even threw new countries in her face, but that didn't help, all she wanted to do was get level, and as her birthday was coming up, she went and made the decision, bought the flights, and finally, she was going to Cyprus. Now I'm not going to bore you all with a ...

This will be an on-going series about life in Ecuador. There are a lot of things to be aware of and which websites like International Living and Escape Artist don't dare mention. (These two website are perhaps the most popular for those who want to live, work and retire abroad.) Excerpts from my diary... Friday January 30, 2009 I tried to call my lawyer about Jayne's visa. I was told by her last week that she would get a ...

... stopped at an enclosure accomodating some Mouflons - a sheep-goat animal that is apparently unique to Cyprus. They are very shy but we spotted some after a while. We arrived at Kykos for lunch &amp; had a delicious good-value meal at the cafeteria. This place is set up to process coach-loads of tourists. A benefit of coming off-season, there weren't any! There were quite a few people but not a ...
