Latchi 2012

We have spent, what could only be described as, the most relaxing and wonderful time in Latchi. We spent 4 days at a luxury hilltop villa, overlooking the bay/harbour and with a great view of the sunrise over the mountains and 2 days in Nicosia doing some more cultural things. 

With my friend Sarah (a university girlfriend) and her boyfriend Andy over from England, we did what can only be described as a whistle stop tour of Cyprus, encompassing nearly every city and many many sights on offer into a super short space of time. 

Latchi is possibly my favourite place on the island, the views are amazing, the town is slow and quiet which makes you feel totally relaxed and there is barely any of the tacky holiday sights like the old queen vic pub and pie and chips that I despise! 

We spent most of the time at the villa, relaxing in our own private pool and took several trips down to the beach where Harry tried to play fisherman with his fishing pots and snorkelling gear, but unfortunately no fish wanted to be his friends this time.  We explored the Akamas Forest a little (not a lot due to a minor injury Sarah incurred the night before) and ate a lot of fresh fish. Harry even braved his first solo Cypriot bbq and produced some amazing souvlaki (pork kebab). 

We even had time to spend a day at the beach in Ayia Napa, go up to the mountains for some nature and have lunch with YaYa. 

I'll let the photographs do the rest of the talking.
