Paphos Christmas Lights Switch On
Published 9th of December, 2018
The Band Played On
After the Mayor gave his speech and performed the countdown, the band started to play.
Let's Have a Wander
I thought I would take the camera for a brief wander. That sign looks interesting, but I will visit it properly another day.
Illuminated Trees
I know this is quite a common effect these days, but I still think it looks lovely. Oh, and if you are wondering how one switch could control all the lights, my ever vigilant wife says that what actually happened was a man went to the white box you can see in the middle right of the picture, and must have flicked a whole bank of switches. So now you know.
12 Drummers Drumming
Unfortunately we arrived to late to see these people perform, but they seemed to be having fun.
Selfie Central
I was surrounded by people taking selfies as I took this, so it was a bit hurried. I think the tree looks lovely though.

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.
