Another beautiful day, another outing into Cyprus. We headed a half hour north to the Sea Caves and then to the Chapel of Agios Georgios. The sea caves were viewed from the cliffs above the water. There was a pottery shop at the Chapel with the cutest pieces for sale. We liked them so much that we violated our "no souvenirs" rule and bought the smallest thing he had. We had taken the back roads and passed through an agricultural area where they were growing bananas, avocados, grapes, pomegranates, papaya and of all things cactus. There was a large shipwreck close to shore that where we briefly took a peek. Then it was lunch at Sonny's where the greater told us we had only a half hour before the place closed. We immediately tried to order the Fish and Chips and Moussaka that we saw on the chalk board menu. He did not have either of these items which seemed odd since he could have erased them. It turned out he was going to shut the place down in three days and take six weeks off so he was just using up what he had on hand. What he had on had way very good so we did not mind.
We stopped off at a little beach on the way
Tall grasses
Filled with small birds
A prehistoric looking lizard jumped as I took the picture
The bananas were in blue bags to protect them from the crows
the big places are further up the hill
Reminded us of the Galapagos
A standing stone
The caves
I wonder is they sing when the waves are bigger?
On the other side of the little inlet
We stood on top of the rock overhang not realizing how undercut they were
An Island in the distance
This rock seemed to be pretty large
The water was a nice blue
Oh my some dark clouds
The inlet had a triangular shape
A closer look at the undercut bank
A bright green bush
A small marina behind the Chapel
The Island we saw from the sea caves
A blend of Ottoman and Orthodox styles
An out door oven?
Roses!
Inside the dome
A ring od windows lets in so much light
Alter of fame
It is never a good day for the dragon
So many ceramic items
Made for strong spirits
The pottery barn
It could be a nut bowl
More roses
Asleep at the wheel
Ran aground
We decided that the clouds are from the sea breeze
The unsung heroes
Sonny's for lunch
There were other diners at the start
Just us at the end
Solar power
Nipple power
Tonight's sunset was a bit more subdued
