I walked on the other bit of the path, from the Phaethon Beach Hotel to the harbour and back.

I am afraid to report that the seaweed is back with vengeance at the hotel near Penelope's Church. Much worse than last year. It is a case of walking past it as quickly as possible as the stench is pretty awful. Once again, tourists thought the smell was sewerage.

It was really warm and I had my jumper off for all of the walk. Lots of locals about and it felt like spring.

I walked to the Mosaics path and then turned round and made my way back. Sky was beautiful with the red colours reflecting on the calm sea. I only had my mobile with me, not my usual Panasonic compact with a Leica lens.

The sun had set and I did not have time for a coffee at Stavros's kiosk, just before the Imperial Hotel. It was almost dark when I got back to the car.

Lovely photos John well done, and of Paphos too :D enjoy your stay. (that seaweed is a real put off for tourists, I've got used to it, and the pong!)

I did get the spade out looking for you John :lol: (yesterday on Riccos beach)
