Visitors.

Aunty Andrea and Michal came to visit, so we have been enjoying playing tour guide.  We didn't seem to get an awful lot further than OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA         the beaches, but we managed to visit a few of those.  They seemed to be fairly impressed with Curium beach and so spent a bit of time there, then Elena and Kyle showed them around the ruins.  When I got some time off work we ventured west to Coral Bay and took a little stroll around Paphos, stopping off for some photos at Aphrodite's Rock.  We also had a look around Limassol and the local area.

Strangely, when they first arrived it was rather cloudy.  Having not really encountered clouds since we first got here back in February, we were a bit shocked at this, but we need not have worried, because everything returned to the normal 30 something degree heat and clear blue skies in no time.

So, we finally travelled further afield, to Nisi Beach, Agia Napa, which turned out to be Andrea's favourite and finally got to visit the Water Park at Fassouri too.OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

The weather and the beaches proved to be too much of a lure unfortunately, but here's to the next visit and hopefully getting A & M to Nicosia and up to the beautiful north of the island, as well as maybe up to the Akamas peninsular.  Now it's just a few hours before our visitors have to return home to Slovakia, where apparently the temperature will be in the low 30s too, so at least they won't immediately feel cold upon their return.  It's been nice having family to stay and it'll be sad to see them go, but we'll look forward to next time!
