Kritou Tera Spring Flowers
Cyprus is in bloom at the moment. To see it, you only need to get in a car and drive out into the countryside. We did just that, and headed to the countryside around Kritou Tera...
Smoke Near Simou
The other day we went for a drive, with no particular destination in mind. Coming down the B7 from Polemi, we saw some smoke to our right. It is irrelevent to this blog other than it gave us reason to find a left turn so we could get a better look.
Kritou Tera Hills
We noted a fire truck near the smoke, so thought nothing more of it. Just another fire in the countryside. At least this time it couldn't be blamed on hunters.
Fields of Wheat
From here on in, I was basically acting as a chaffeur. Alex wanted to photograph some flowers and it was my duty to provide them for her. And wheat. And bugs too, for that matter.
Orchids
We featured the bee orchid in a recent blog. This is another variety. Serapias may not be as attractive as the bee orchid, but these ones have scrubed up nice enough in Alex's picture.
Rock Rose
This is a pretty little thing.

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.
