Just a few days in Cyprus for some warm sunshine (and rain at times!) staying with Jeans cousin Tim and his wife Jill near Paphos. We flew out from the UK on April 1st for one whole week of R and R. Very enjoyable it was too.

 

Tim and Jill have a nice detached house with a lovely pool just a few miles north of Paphos.

The water temperature on arrival was a bit on the cool side for swimming though.

The following morning, Tim and I on the balcony. I had a wee walk around the neighbourhood: note the wording on the lower part of the sign!

Not always true in Cyprus.

This is what I like about Cyprus, oranges just hanging there on trees in peoples gardens.

seen here through a bottomless storage jar of the huge variety.

and in someone else's garden: a car in the process of being restored.

a child peeps out of his gate.

a giant cactus flower of the deceased variety on a road verge.

back at base, breakfast in the garden was the norm for each day.

some flora pics taken around and about Pyla.

Our hosts take us down to St Gearges on the nearby coast.

the colour of the wild flowers had to be seen to be believed
