Spring is in the air...


Despite having rained most of the day today, spring is at last in the air. Cyprus has gone from being dry and arid to green and alive with the colours of Irises, Poppies, Cyclamen, Gladioli, Aliums and lots of others yet to be identified(see picture)!

The frogs are still croaking their mating call every night (all night) and there are some pregnant cats around so the Cyprus College of Art wall will soon become a playground for kittens once more.

My sister Caroline is here to stay for a few weeks, so we have been off out exploring (hence there hasn't been much work going on!) It has been good learning more about Cyprus and we are off later in the week to try and find an old turkish village abandoned after the invasion in 1974. Will let you know if we find it!

Hi Megumi, I spoke too soon. Lots of every weather today, I believe they call it a coptic Storm!
