Wednesday back in Coral Bay ...

Well dear readers of Wear and Dao,  since the sun's still shining and the buses so frequent why not head out to Coral Bay again?

Yesterday saw Portugal thrash Switzerland in the World Cup and with Spain eliminated by Morocco unexpectedly on penalties it just leaves England's game with France to see us through to the semi-finals. .. if we beat them! Portugal and Brasil are clear favourites though who knows, England could win their first World Cup since 1966!

Meanwhile, back to today  ...and Coral Bay, clearly it's not the  only sandy beach in Cyprus but it's certainly the best for us in Paphos. Maria who works the little cafe at one end of the bay has been friendly and accomodating allowing your old blogger and partner to make use of the tables and chairs when not on the beach a bonus that i doubt we could be afforded in the height of the summer season. Back in Great Britain there are many sandy beaches, including Druridge Bay in Northumberland and Studland Bay in Dorset. Both wonderful for sunbathing and swimming when it's warm and sunny e.g. Spring, Summer and Autumn but not really Winter! Hence the winter holiday in Paphos ... a decision we havn,t regretted for a moment.

Now, dear readers, we're sitting in an Indian restaurant eating vegetable korma and tuna sushi respectively  ... delicious and nutritious as usual ...

Tomorrow, who knows?  We still have two days before flying back to Stanhope via Manchester!
