Today’s Song

In one of today’s songs, I rapped about what the Spirit had me doing as I went to AK services.  It intertwines with the parts of the story, like the two incidents in my last post, that weren’t mundane.  Mostly it was mundane.  Why was I at that exact point in my walk on my way to taekwondo class in Ypsonas when the three men stopped me, and the man took out the taser?  And so on.  I was guided by the spirit to the last body movement the whole time since the elevator (see my archive), so in a sense, getting to where I am today was totally knife edge, and maybe connects to “cowboy like me” where the person has some tricks up his sleeve: otherwise, maybe “thought I saw you at the bus stop” would have been followed by some obscene (and typical of her) thing instead of “I didn’t though”.

Enjoying the moment at Polemedia (Limassol Forestry Park), Cyprus on 30 March 2013.

This is 9 years after we first arrived on Cyprus soil.

Cyprus, Memories of a life gone by.

It was a big move and it could so easily have failed.

But, we did it!

We took the bull by horns, sold our 2 bedroom terraced home in a Lancashire mill town in UK, taking our dog and 2 cats to "follow the dream" of a New Life in Cyprus.

Many dream, but don't do.

If life throws you the option - take that chance.

Don't leave it too late.....

CORAL BAY - AN OVERNIGHT STAY.

February 2015 at Coral Bay Harbour in Paphos on the western side of the island and a popular tourist resort with British people as well as UK retirees.

The weather had played a real blinder and the day before we were ready to take the 70km drive from our home on the outskirts of Limassol towards Paphos - it snowed!

It was one of the coldest winters we'd experienced since the time we had arrived on the island, all the way back in 2004.

Not just in the mountains above Nicosia or on the Troodos ski resort - but, in the seaside resorts all along the coast...

It was still freezing cold when we arrived in the late morning, so we took ourselves into Coral Bay itself and a had a wander around exploring and taking in the scenery.

A little memorial sanctuary we found along the top of the coastal footpath above Coral Bay, close to our accommodation.

Here's that little memorial, I mentioned.

So here we were, taking a little break away from home reliant totally on a split air-conditioning unit to keep the 1 bedroom apartment we had chosen to stay in, warm and toasty.

Did we trust it? Not on your life!

We took our emergency electric fan heater along for the ride, and boy - did we need it...

++++++++++++

Everyone staying in the apartment complex that night, all ended up in the bar - body heat was the life and soul of the party that night.

LIMASSOL OLD TOWN.

A place we always liked to take our visitors who came to see us during the years we were based in Cyprus.

It's an interesting town although a new Marina was constructed a few years before we left it behind to return to UK in 2016.

You will always find a little bar or kafenion tucked away in the narrow streets.

This photo again, is in February - hence the outside liquid gas powered patio heaters.

And below, the wooden pier near Limassol Old Port - always a firm favourite place of mine.

++++++++++++

LIMASSOL WINE FESTIVAL.

We visited the wine festival, held in the public gardens down by the coast, just out of Limassol town centre, for the very first time in the summer of 2015.

The Wine Festival is an annual event and generally takes place in August, a time when most Cypriots take their summer holidays.

It's hot and humid, which gets very wearing - unless you're constantly in an office with air-conditioning.

A few photos from that night, here below:

The "Vraka Man"

Celebrating 54 Years of the Cyprus Wine Festival.

No festival is complete in Cyprus - unless there's SOUVLA.

Souvla - is large pieces, marinated and cooked slowly and lovingly over piles of white hot smouldering coals on huge BBQs. It's generally served with Cyprus potatoes cut into large wedges - also cooked slowly in oil as well as their skins

++++++++++++

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SOUVLA.

This is the traditional way to serve Souvla (it can be pork or lamb) and it's served differently from the Souvlakia you are served in tourist restaurants where the meat is in smaller pieces, either on a skewer or in Pitta Bread.

It's the only way I will eat pork.

"I never liked it as a child living in the UK, but regular nights at a local bar - very close to where we lived in the village of Ypsonas some 12km out of the Tourist Area of Limassol, soon changed my mind on that."

"Frixo Fridays" on the old road leading out of Limassol in the direction of Paphos, would take you there.

We would meet with the local residents, the bar owner (Frixos) and his wife (Patroulla / Pat) and around half a dozen British people who lived on the other side of the village to us.

The juke box was constantly refilled with coins, the Zivania, KEO Beer and Carlsberg flowed along with much singing and dancing.

Souvla and salad was served free each Friday night - and we got the smell drifting gently into the bar from the back patio, where Frixos tended to it for several hours before and during the course of the evening.

GREAT MEMORIES!

Needless to say, we shipped a couple of Cyprus BBQs back to UK when we returned in 2016.

Go on, I know you're curious - click that link and have a peep at them. They're available to purchase in the UK.

I hope you enjoyed the photos and reading this small part of my past life in Cyprus.

My Life in Ypsonas

I live and work in a village called Ypsonas. It is located from the center of Limassol 10 kilometers. This is sleeping area and there is no entertainment. There are three cafes, a church, a bank, a stationery store, three large grocery store, and a bakery shop. I go shopping when I'm bored. Large store the "Papantoniou" is located from my house one kilometer. In the store you can buy everything: bread, vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, sausage, milk, ice-cream, alcohol, things for house, toys, books. There are lot of people every days. I love this store. Going to this store is like an interesting adventure for me.
