Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....

It will come as no surprise if I tell you that we were up and about fairly early today. We arrived to a great welcome from our neighbours, banners and balloons on the balcony. I think really they were celebrating the fact that the dust and the noise of a building site was almost at an end. It was a wonderful feeling to be standing in our own house, having watched most of the building work; and realising that the dream had really come true.We made the basic decision to try to approach the carton unpacking reasonably logically and to go back to the rented pad to sleep for the next couple of nights. That way we could eat in restaurants on our way back and not worry if we left a little chaos in the new house. Then Lil came up real trumps on our first day, she announced that she had made this huge lasagna and asked if we would  come to help them eat it. No contest.
