    Thanks peeps!
    Poor Mum was sick again last night.
    I think that it might have been just too much rich food etc but I don't know. She slept well afterwards though.
    Yesterday we went back to Limassol and found the house we lived in in 1967, and the restaurant we used to go to a lot. Although it was closed up now. We had a cuppa on the beach opposite and then drove back again. I don't mind driving though.
    I am hoping for a relaxing day here near the hotel today though.
    Maybe a drive up the coast if the sun comes out again.
    I have been listening to my mum telling me such fascinating stories of her life, even of my granny's life as a young woman who went to sea at age 16. in the 1920's
    I wish I had a dictaphone with me!

    The winds are high and the sky is grey. It looks like rain so we had a little drive to the harbour and had a coffee etc but came back to the room and are resting, watching films on the tv.
    Having a lazy day then.

    Such as shame the weather seems to be against you right now. Unexpected I guess as I spent Xmas/NY in Egypt a few years ago and the weather was glorious. Not too hot but warm enough to wear sundress/shorts etc.

    Was lovely to hear about you sharing stories with your mum. These moments and memories are invaluable. I didn't get the opportunity, unfortunately, as my mum died before I really got to know her.

    Hope the weather picks up and you enjoy the rest of your holiday, you deserve it xx

    We spent the day watching tv.
    A film called John Q, then BBC 1 countryfile etcz just watched Brave. Now we are going down to dinner as we missed lunch.
    I think it's the laziest day I have had in many a blue moon.

    Morning from another wet day in Cyprus. The rain in the night was quite torrential. I am hoping that the sun will eventually come out today. I am not sure what we can do except maybe go for a drive just to look at the scenery. For now it's time for breakfast

    Well we took a very long drive 8 hours of it. We went from sun to snow to thunder and lightning and back to Sunshine.
