We discuss hiring a car and decide that we need Melissa to wake up early so the plan is to do this tomorrow. We go for a walk along the beach, when Melissa eventually gets up. Melissa has a swim in the sea, my mum paddles until she sees fish, my dad sits and watches and I have to walk a couple hundred metres away as there is so little shade here. After a café stop where we, like true British stereotypes, discuss the weather with the proprietor we head back to the hotel so Melissa can do some more pool swimming. One of the other people staying here thought they had lost their keys in the pool so Melissa volunteered her expert diving services to go looking for them and was rewarded with coins thrown into the pool for her to retrieve and keep. My mum and dad went to book the hire car for the next few days so tomorrow the off the tourist track adventure begins, first stop Avakas gorge (if we can find it). I have to try and persuade Melissa to write a few papers for school as I did say this would be an educational trip as much as a holiday, I wont be holding my breath for these.
I hope you get a chance to drive up into the Troodos mountains and also visit the capital. But you already know the island well. Enjoy the rest of your stay.
