I’m back from Cyprus, nice and tanned and relaxed!

The infinity pool

Here are some of the highlights from Cyprus!

• Kittens! (how could this not be first!) They were adorable!

eeee baby kittens!
• Visiting Lara bay, our car was horrific, a box on wheels - so an hour and a half over terrain that really needed a land rover made this place all the more special. It was a bay that was completely desserted, and on a cliff was this restaurant with tacky plastic chairs yet ultra modern and clean loos. Very strange but it was a really magical place.
• Seeing turtles nesting at Lara Bay.
• Getting manfriend to have a go at Diving. I’m already a qualified advanced diver so I’m desperate to get manfriend to qualify too so we can go on diving holidays. (Mediterranean diving isn’t exactly exciting once you’ve dived in Honduras!)
• Our house was amazing, if it had had any sort of water pressure it would have been perfect. It was easier to shower outside in the rainwater shower than in the bathroom - warmer too!
• Trying new foods! I’m well known for being a fussy eater, but I’m trying to branch out and like new foods. Two new things to add to my list are squid and feta.

It started off with me and my parents renting a villa. Then manfriend decided to come along. Then my housemates joined and then two weeks before we leave my great aunt decided to join too! Shes 80! Everyone was invited, we just didn’t expect such a huge uptake in offers.

Still its gonna be super fun! Then I have to come back and clean the house before the long and complicated moving house story unfolds!
