Cyprus Holiday Diary

16.10.2010

We woke up early around 5 am, without the help of the alarm clock (it was set for 5.30). The departure was changed from 7.45am to 8.30am, so we left home at 6.30. I'm looking forward to seeing how it will be, the holiday ! Anyhow you already can see the difference between people that go to London and others that go to Greece ! We were complaining about gipsies every time we were going to England, but now we realise that they were behaving themselves compared to the people that go to Greece/Paphos LOL. We had fun, me and Simon, about this. OK, we are ready to go on the plane.

Later on: The journey by plane was peaceful. Comfortable enough, though BlueAir is not so good in services. We stopped for 45 minutes at Salonic. The man that was sitting near us was living there for 25 years, in a place called Perea, 18 km from Salonic (he told us a lot about himself !). He likes Greeks ! Even during the flight we had "fun" regarding the behaviour of people in the plane. The resemblance between us and them, they were so noisy, not listening, huge cases .....

When we arrived in Paphos, the person we rented the car from was waiting for us, Dimitris. The sky was cloudy, but the temperature was about 27 degrees Celsius. It was very nice. You could feel the humidity in the air, but not uncomfortable. We took the car, a ford, and left ! They have the same time zone as us. From the beginning, from the airport I started with "wow" !

Everything is different from what we are used to. The buildings are about the same as in Greece, but the landscape, the plants, everything else is different. It looks like a semi-desert, it's sand and rock. And what the wind and the water could make from something like that, it's unbelievable. The rocks looks like they have lace, the plants seems covered by time, everything looks like a lost world. It's not raining so often here, so all is covered with dust. The colour is dusty-white, everywhere.

We arrived at the hotel, called hotel-apartments, because you can rent an apartment, not only a room , exactly what we did, for 35 euros per night ! Quite cheep I can say. We have a bedroom, a living room, from this is arranged a kitchen with fridge, cooker, dishes, all you need to make a meal and a bathroom. This is at the first floor. It's clean, comfortable and everything is working. It's not a luxury apartment, but it's nice. I like it ! And we have a balcony from where you can see the sea.
