A short break in Cyprus

No blog entries lately as we have been enjoying a short break in Cyprus courtesy of our friends Charles and Janet. We flew out of Izmir and into Ercan airport on the Turkish side of Nicosia (Lefkosa). We stayed in Limassol.


This is one of the sculptures in the Sculpture Park on the sea-front in Limassol ...
and below are some of the "do-nut" trees that line the beach-front road (they are trimmed hollow in the centre just like a ring doughnut).



At the end of the week we ventured up to the "pan-handle" end of Cyprus in the extreme north of the island.



This is sunset on Altynkum beach where the turtles come to lay their eggs in the early summer.
Below is how it looks in the daytime ... very pretty and very deserted.
