It's late, so this post will be brief.
Today I ate some amazing food. I was introduced to haluka (or something similar to that) cheese a few days ago, and for lunch I had an incredible pita bread sandwich with the cheese and tomotoes inside it. After that was delicious ice cream that tasted more like custard.
We ate Meze style (there are about 15 small courses of food, beginning with appetizers and going through scrumptious meats and topping with desert of strawberries and apples) for dinner. After our meal a band came and played an accordion and a sitar-like instrument. Some of the Cypriots eating nearby began to dance. They got most of us involved, and it was quite fun.
On the way back from our 3 hour meal, we stopped to play a round of bumper cars, European style. Bumper cars here are fast and the time is long. All of us were laughing for the majority of the time. It was incredible. Other than that, we swing danced on the roof of the hotel for a bit to cap off a good day.
Now it's time for bed

Sounds like a blast! (... and the thought of a bunch of awkward Americans dancing a Cypriot dance is very funny!!)
ReplyDeleteGood food & dancing--doesn't get much better for you does it? I am a happy mom--two posts in two days!! Does a mom's heart good :)
ReplyDeleteCyprus must indeed be more laid back since you are posting at an alarmingly fast rate!!! You'll have to get some recipes so you can make your own Cypriot foods when you return. I would probably lose a lot of my flab on a trip such as yours and my pickiness.
