| Good Morning Paphos! |
One of the best things of renting a car when exploring a new country is being able to go wherever you want, whenever you want. We decided to go get lost in the mountains of central Cyprus, stopping at wineries and quaint little towns along the way. Cyprus is such a beautiful and calming country, I really cannot say enough about it!

Tsanarides Winery: An absolute must visit if you only have time to check out one winery. We were the only visitors there for a while and had the whole place to ourselves with the owner! It was really interesting listening to him talk about his family's history of wine making and maintaining their plots of vineyards.

Exploring the town of Omodos. This is a ridiculously pictureque little town with cobblestone streets that are too narrow for cars, the streets are lined with wine tasting rooms, and little cafes. It is was a little slice of heaven on Earth. Have you ever seen a sky so blue!?!?!?!
In heading back to Paphos, we look the coastal route and enjoyed some other beautiful shades of blue along the way.

| Typical Cypriot meal = DELICIOUS |
This was definitely one of my most favorite trips since we have moved to the Middle East, though I have absolutely loved everywhere that we have been!
