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

Today we had arranged with Bri and Lil to go over to the other side for some shopping. If you have a residency permit then it is possible to get a day pass and travel through to the British Base, over the border in Famagusta. This was our first venture and Bri and Lil were our guides. We had a tremendous day out and Joan and I were getting excited over things like packs of Weetabix on special offer, pork chops and sausages. Many things were available that you just cannot get here in the north, like the Xmas turkey, which is now safely tucked away in the freezer. So great fun and a big stock of things in the cupboards until the next time and to top it off we all had lunch sitting outside in the sun before coming home. See, told you the weather changes quickly.
