Wandering the World

Stories and tips from around the world.

Cyprus Day 4

Pasta Party

I dedcided not to run this morning, which meant it was a later start to the day. It was handy as it was also raining heavy, so knew that anything I did today would be best being indoors. By 10:00 I'd decided to head out into the rain, and watched some of the corporate 5K race. After a while I then headed back in the direction of the marina, and looked around some souvenir shops, but this time didn't particularly want anything.

Limassol

The rest of the day was spent wandering from place to place, with no real goal, and for lunch I had some more local food. This time I tried chicken souvlakis, but had trouble eating it when it lost structural integrity and the last bits collapsed onto my tray. Some cake from Starbucks made up for this though. A few hours later it was the the Pasta Party, back on the catamaran from yesterday.

The food was okay, I didn't need much really having eaten late today, but also bumped into a few familiar faces there. Now I just needed to relax some more, and hopefully not have the 14 miles I'd walked today impact me tomorrow.
