4 DAYS IN CYPRUS
After 7 months away from home, my father was on his way to do business in Europe. But , instead of flying straight to Italy, he opted to rather break up the trip to include 4 day with me at a destination which was both travel friendly, close to Israel and NOT ones usual destination but equally impressive. 
Cyprus was, very thankfully, the destination of choice for a number of reasons. Thanks to my fathers old friend from P.E. (George Patsalos) was stayed with him in a beautiful village outside of Nicosia. 
In the future I will add the quite diabolical story of how I eventually got to see my father in Cyprus, but for now, please enjoy the sites of Cyprus from pictures taken - they include my diving excursion of a WWII sunken ship which had about 6 Tanks on boards - an eery sight to see lying on the ocean floor 50 years after the war ended. You will also see from the pictures, the insane Master Diver (our diving instructor)  who decided to where a brand of wetsuit that never survived in South Africa (for obvious reasons) He also did something COMPLETELY illegal by taking the group into the ship (not only 30m below the surface which was not allowed for those with only and OPEN WATER 1 qualification) which was a very dangerous option as there is so much that could go wrong.
