Interesting Nook
There are some interesting rock formations in that hole you can see there.
The Helmet Rides Again!
It is actually quite difficult writing a blog using pictures somebody else has taken. Normally I construct a rough narrative in my head as I am taking the pictures. So forgive me if I take a back seat and let the pictures do the talking.
Distant Hills
Social Distancing
And yes, while we visited, we were observing social distancing rules. This wasn't difficult, as we only saw four people in total. At one point, two young men arrived in a car, had a whistle-stop tour of the rocks, then vanished with screeching tyres. They were followed a quarter of an hour later by a couple of hikers.
Early Orchids
Each Spring Cyprus is blessed with a host of orchids. They have started early this year too.

Droushia Lowlands
Droushia is a village of many charms, and recent roadworks. There is an abandoned village nearby too, which we set out to explore for this blog. Rather typically, we got distracted along the way, so today we bring you a report on what lies in the countryside below.
Spring is in The Air!
Yesterday we took a walk out across the Akamas, above Avakas Gorge (which deserves a blog article of its own). Spring was definitely in the air, and the flowers were blooming. We took a few shots to share.
Cyprus Orchids
If you only visit in the heat of summer, you could be forgiven for thinking that a lot of Cyprus is like a desert; brown and arid. However, the truth is somewhat different. During Spring, most of Cyprus is green, as recent blogs will have shown. Not only that, but spring flowers come out to bloom, painting the hills and valleys with a sea of colour. If you are lucky, or you know where to look, you will also come across fields of orchids...
Kato Paphos In Springtime.
We have visitors at the moment, so have been showing them the sights. In between times I have taken the occasional photo, which put together paints a nice picture of Kato Paphos in the Springtime.

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
