An energetic group of Cyprus Strollers hiked in Adelphi forest on Saturday 14 February. Despite the weather forecast which was calling for certain rain throughout, we experienced only light rain for some of the time, and our raincoats provided perfect protection. Among the several delights on our path were orchids, the almond trees in full bloom, the first blooming cyclamen and a small waterfall, consequent of the heavy rain of this season. Lunch at Forviotissa taverna in Asinou, by the fireplace, at the end, was an excellent reward.

Kindly note a change of date for next week’s activity, which is brought forward by one day; the hike at Pedieos river banks in Nicosia will take place on Saturday 21 Feb. instead of the Sunday. This will let people free to attend the Limassol carnival parade on 22 Feb., as requested.
