November 7th, 2023 Larnaca and Paphos, Cyprus

 7AM I woke Christabel to get the hotel breakfast. We then departed for Choirokoitia, which is a very unimpressive Neolithic ruin site. We spent 40 minutes there before driving toward the mountains. We arrived at the Kykkos Monastery at 11AM.



12PM We left for the Monastery of Saint John Lampadistes. It was three churches in one. One was from the 11th century. Another was from the 12th and the last addition was from the 15th century.

1:30PM I rushed Christabel to leave. We drove to the Platres Village, which didn't have many photogenic elements so we drove straight through to try to get a kleftiko at Strofi sti gefsi. Unfortunately, we ran into another restaurant that is closed for the next week.

4PM We finally arrived at the Paphos Mosaics. It was the last UNESCO site here.


6PM We drove back to Agios Georgios Alamanou Restaurant for seafood

8:30 We drove back to the Lordos Hotel and left for the Pergamos border at 10:30PM. It was only 15 minutes away. Christabel drove me there and we parted ways.

12PM The cab ride was 25 minutes and 50 EUR. I broke my 100 USD and paid the driver 55 USD. They let us into security at 1AM.
