2019-12-27 Day 434 Fri



We left a bit earlier today as the sun sets at 16:35 so we have plenty of time at that end of the day for computer stuff.
Most of these roads in the hills are sealed and fairly windy and narrow.




Lots of terraced hills either growing fruit trees olives or bush vines.

 We found some dirt tracks to drive on.
 There was a walk up to a Caledonia water fall just 1.4 km but we walked from the bottom. It was really beautiful at the waterfall.






 John continued on up and I returned to EC and drove it up the hill to meet John just as he was arriving at the main road.








 





Strawberry trees.









 

We headed on up to Troodos and the snow.
This was the first place I had snow skied. Kathryn and I went up with Lee Jeremy Darios and Greg. We hired skies and just walked up the hill and skied down. None of us new how to turn.
A beautiful clear day to be up on the top of Cyprus.
We continued on along the mountains to Kykkos monastery. 
 
The road to the tomb was close with a boom gate.
We went back down the road a little and drive up a dead end track.
Camped a third of the way back down where it was a little flat. John dug in the back wheels.
I did the washing and John hung it outside. Just as well we did not make it to the tomb the whole top of the ridge was lit up. Also the monastery was lit up.
