Living the dream - Our villa is for sale

May 22

- At last there are going to be some pics to add to the site, why, because today we went up to the Karpaz with Derek and Sandra. They had never ventured up there before and we had promised to let them benefit from our frequent visits. We booked our favourite Malibu Motel for the night and arrived up there about 11.30, after a coffee break in Bogaz.

Having dumped our overnight bags at the motel, we went on up to golden beach where we had lunch b

efore lazing and swimming on the beach. Another brief coffee stop to wash out the salt etc and then we took Derek & Sandra on to the monastery and towards the tip of the peninsula and they even got to see some of the famous wild donkeys. These animals are really quite shy, they tolerate people but don't come too near.

We made sure that we got back to the Malibu in time to take a little walk around the harbour area and there we found to out amazement that the Titanic had been raised. We also made very sure that we had a good spot on the terrace to enjoy a G & T and one of the wonderful sunsets that we always seem to get over there. The boss of the motel had been over to the harbour earlier and got four really big, fresh sea bream for our dinner, grilled on the BBQ and served up with a fresh salad and the standard mezé. Life is a real bitch, long may it last and remain so enjoyable.
