Packing day

Its that slightly sad day where everyone is packing up, winding down and preparing to go home. Everyone seems rather tired. It has been a brilliant week, although we leave Cyprus intending to return. We have barely seen a fraction of this beautiful island, but what we have seen has intrigued us. I was barely a teenager when I last came here; this trip has given me a much better grasp of Cypriot life. Of course, I knew quite a lot about it already from my family, but finally getting to explore this place under my own steam has really been magical. I feel I now have a much clearer idea of the complex politics behind the conflict with the Turks for one. On the other hand, I haven’t seen half as much as I would like, so I really hope this is not the last time Lyn and I come here.
