So, today is the halfway point for my time in Cyprus. I have been here for two weeks and have two more to go. Today was a day off, so to speak. We used the day to show our friend David around Polis. First, we went to the plateia and had a late breakfast – I had an omelette. We then went to the site and looked around the excavated areas, EF1, EF2, and EG0. Next, we went for a ride and looked at a few sites around the area. We stopped first at Chrysochou and looked at the church of Agios Andronikos which was a sixteenth-century church that was turned into a mosque in the seventeenth century. We then drove around the countryside and looked around and visited some neighboring villages, such as Steni. We then went to lunch and I had a healthy brunch (see below).
