Cyprus - Tuesday 11th May 2010

Today was Goldy’s last day and our three year Anniversary.

We all got up nice and late having a chilled out time reading and having a bit of a swim until it was time to take Goldy to the airport.
He set off with Gaz and Janey who took him to the airport and we followed up a little later.

Annoyingly traffic prevented us from getting anywhere close to the airport in time so we met Gaz and Janey later on at the port in Paphos.
After a quick drink and a bit of people watching we went next door to the Paphos Archaeological site.
It was really very, very arid. It was hotter than Satan’s armpit after three sets of centre court tennis. Wandering round in the dust and the heat we saw all the amazing mosaics and the amphitheatre.

We have been there a couple of times before and it still amazes me that the Romans went to great lengths to have intricate and ornate floors and huge squares surrounded by pillars.

The heat was getting to us all eventually and water was running out so we decided to head back to the house and have another chillaxing session before dinner.

After eating copious amounts of left over ice cream, we saw the best sunset of the holiday. It was awesome. I’m not poetic so I’m not going to even try to describe it. The photo I took shows it quite well though.

Our last night’s meal was in Polis at a place called Finikas. It was by far the best food we’d had all week and had the friendliest staff by far. The menu had local and western dishes available so we all stuck to chargrilled and baked tasty food.

It was a great final night out before the last day for Gaz and Janey.
