Today dear readers of Wear and Dao, we ventured out in the car hired for four days. Yesterday we headed for the Troodos Mountains and explored there. We found a big monastery where Archbishop Makarios was interred and after looking around monastery museum found a restaurant serving good food for lunch ... vegetable soup for starters followed by spaghetti Neapolitan for her and octopus in red wine sauce for your old blogger. Then we went in search of Troodos itself which took a while, and found it in the dark so we saw little of it! On the way home to Paphos we got rather lost and were running low on fuel ... worrying somewhat since the fuel stations we found were automatic i.e. no staff and it took quite a while to find someone to explain the system in English ... third try and bingo! the car was fuelled ...
Anyway back to today Saturday 2nd December ...so we ventured out after breakfast in the Athena Beach Hotel and headed north up the coast towards Polis then on further along the coast on another warm sunny day, finding a beautifully located restaurant for soup made with goat's milk, bulghar wheat, tomato and grated courgette. .. delicious! Then we drove north a
some more and found another beautifully located restaurant overlooking a harbour for more lovely food. Now we're sitting in the sun, digesting our food and looking at the view before heading home to Paphos. ..
