Ezousa Estuary
Paphos View
Anyway, we are at the seaside now. We do like to be beside the seaside, but I am not going to make a song and dance about it. The beach you can see beyond the stream is NOT the same place we were standing at the start of the blog. The estuary is wider than that. I am a bit puzzled by the appearance of what looks like a yellow buoy though. What's that for?
Ezousa Falls
Ok, this is no where near as spectacular as the waterfall we showed you at Trozena a couple of weeks ago, but it is nice having one right by the beach. Shame about the rubbish though.
Bring Back The Guardians
Going back to the memorial, I couldn't clean any of the teddies up, but I did at least stack them up again so the girl's spirit will once more have her toys to play with...
If you want to see what the memorial used to look like, have a look at our earlier blog. You can see that though muddy, there are now a lot more toys!
Another Shrine
On our way back up the road to the B6, we passed this. On the way down, I had assumed it was an advert of some kind. However. I was paying more attention on the return journey (possibly because I now knew the road here was ok) and it soon became apparent that this was no advert. Had my Greek been better I am sure I would have realised sooner what this was, but anyway, we stopped the car and I had a look.
Memorial to a Young Lad?
Presumably, this is a memorial to a young lad who liked motorbikes. This is a fairly poignant stretch of river. I hope all concerned are resting in peace...

Happy Easter
We were out doing our Annual Easter Egg Hunt this morning. It took us down through the Esouza Valley, and finally to the sea. I won't be doing a blog article on the final part of this journey, as it isn't in the same league as the two sections I have previously blogged about. However, we did stumble across this shrine. At first glance, I took it as a typical shrine you see fairly frequently in Cyprus. However, a second glance revealed it to be rather unusual.
Kannaviou Countryside
You could be forgiven for thinking that the Ezousa Valley runs from the sea to Episkopi Village. But it continues through Letymbou all the way up to Kannaviou. And guess what? It's just as lovely up there.Related Pages

A couple of years ago we stumbled across a sad little memorial at the mouth of the Ezousa River. We thought we would check it out again a few days ago, to see what the area looked like after the rains. The question was, how would we get to it?

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.
