Vaccination time, BBQ and KB beach

 This week Rob went for his first Covid 19 vaccination jab at the “Spyros Kyprianou” Athletic Center  sports centre in Limassol. The process was quick, efficient and painless, although the following day he did suffer some mild side effects, such as sore joints and tiredness. 



 Saturday turned out to be a hot and muggy day so we drove to Kryiana beach hoping for some cooling breeze. There was not a breath of wind and Mediterranean sea was like a sheet of glass. We enjoyed a glass of wine and a lovely lunch with several friends.

On Sunday we attended our first BBQ of the year when Jane and RT invited us to their house. RT donned his favourite apron and cooked up some lovely food.

British Easter Sunday in Cyprus 2021

 Our Easter Sunday began with a walk in the local countryside, the weather was a very pleasant 19 degrees C. We are so lucky to have this right on our doorstep.

 The one thing we do notice on our walks it the lack of planes flying into Pafos airport.  Pissouri lies directly on the flight path and Sunday's used to be quite busy with incoming flights. 







We the returned home to share a dinner of roast lamb  with a couple of friends. We then learned that we are due to have our first Covid 19 jab later this week.

A 60th birthday and a countryside walk

 This week we were kindly invited to Tina's 60th birthday party held at the Delizie bar in Pissouri. As thunder, lighting and hail poured down outside as the guests enjoyed the tasty food. 



The following day the clouds cleared and we took a lovely walk around the countryside that surrounds Pissouri. We both agree that Springtime is our favourite time of year in Cyprus.
