Baby Alfie arrives and a new Cypriot Driving Licence

Last year we were privileged to be invited to Lisa and Shane's wedding, well this week the happy couple announced the arrival of their baby son, Alfie.
Alfie was born in Limassol and weighed in at 6 pounds- 8 ounces.


















At the beginning of this Month, Cyprus came into line with the majority of  other European countries when Transport minister Marios Demetriades  announced we would be introducing the laminated, credit card sized driving licence into the country. Previously we had a cardboard licence with the photo stapled to it and Rob's cardboard licence was falling apart.

As the temperatures sore into the high 30's in Cyprus, the "Jersey Boys" show made a return to Pissouri. A near sell out crowd enjoyed the slick song and dance show.

On Sunday we cooled off with a trip to Melanda beach with Jill and Alan, we had lunch in a local taverna and then took a cooling dip in the Meditterrean  sea.












The weekend ended with a cold glass of white wine and watching a glorious sunset over Cape Aspro in Pissouri.

The Olivio is a small , cosy restaurant with exceptional food and service.

We sat on their terrace and had pre dinner drinks and watched a superb sunset and then moved inside for an wonderful dinner.
