May 17, 2007 - Paphos, Cyprus

Paphos,Cyprus I arrived at the Venus Beach Hotel at 8:30 pm on Friday night after 24 hours of flying. ... Bangkok-London-Paphos with a change of airports at London! When I checked in the staff mentioned a local dance group would be performing in the bar at 9:30. ... So I dumped my bags and went down-my current theory on jet lag is to be really tired! The dancing was fun to watch and in the course of the evening I met Val Mundy from London who was also here on her own and Andreas an 80 year old local character (you can see their portraits in the photo gallery) and the theory worked! NO JET LAG Val has been a great companion.Paphos,Cyprus I arrived at the Venus Beach Hotel at 8:30 pm on Friday night after 24 hours of flying. ...

Jul 10, 2004 - Flogging the Bishop

Trip to Paphos today. ... Paphos was spectacular - the ruins are well preserved, although after a while I could take no more of our tour guide's interminable lectures and wandered around the site on my own. ... I saw a lot of it, and was rewarded by soaking nearly every square centimeter of my clothing with sweat.Trip to Paphos today. ...
