There was no exception this week: the Cyprus Strollers welcomed new participants, again. Yet, it was exciting to greet Marina, the youngest member, barely 2 years old, who got a lift from daddy. The excursion on Sunday 6 December was fascinating in all respects; the day was sunny and clear, enabling views to the north coast; attendance was large; the hike was challenging, in Adelphi forest, mainly of pine trees; and the meal was a deserved reward for all. Compliments to Laurent for leading the outing, and to Alex, Koula and Therese for supplying their photos. Join us on Saturday 12 Dec. at Larnaca Salt Lake.

“Εμείς γι’ αλλού κινήσαμε γι’ αλλού, κι’ αλλού η ζωή μάς πάει…” are the words of a very sweet Greek song. Loosely translated, they tell ‘we set off for one path, but life did not happen as we desired’. This summarizes the hike of Saturday 14 November; under a bright sun, which was brighter than desired, we hiked a different path than planned, at a tangent. The path we walked turned out to be rather more interesting, since it was along hills with pine trees. The Cyprus Strollers welcomed three new members, had a good time and thoroughly enjoyed our picnic at the Kornos picnic site. See you on 22 Nov. on Troodos, Artemis.

The excursion to Thalassines Spilies (Sea Caves) and Cape Greco on Saturday 31 October took place in full sunshine, and followed a path along the coast, with the sea very inviting in its turquoise colours. The group enjoyed many aspects, the visit to the coastal church of Agioi Anargyroi, as well as the picnic. The walk Leader had arranged everything nicely, with the epitomy being the Pirate Boat which entered the Sea Caves bay coincidentally with the Strollers! Compliments to Koula for the photos. See you on Sunday 8 Nov. at Atalanti.
