Omodos and Paphos (again!) - Sunday 12 March 2017

The weather is even worse today. Oh well. I set off to the mountains. Not far from Limassol is Omodos. It's a nice European village in the foothills of the Troodos Mountains.

Walked around. Lots of narrow cobbled streets. Had a coffee.

Then drove back to Paphos. I ran out of time yesterday and missed Tomb of the Kings and the main archeological site which had all the mosaics. I liked Tomb of the Kings.

Then drove to Governors Beach on the other side of Limassol for lunch. Weather was truly awful so drove back and had lunch in hotel.

At night I drove up to marina / old town and went to microbrewery for dinner, next to the castle. I keep being drawn back to this area.

You can't see but the car is filthy thanks to dirty rain caused by dust blowing over from Africa...


Omodos Bakery...I took the photo in case I got lost and couldn't find my way out...breadcrumbs etc...

Had to go to Melbourne for work. Flew on the Monday morning and straight to the office. After work I checked in to Voco and crossed Lonsdale...
