Sat by the pool looking out to sea…

I am currently look out to sea from the side of the pool here in Cyprus.  The north Africa coast line cannot be seen, though I am told it is only a little beyond the horizon.  I am waiting for my client to pick me up, so we can go and finish off the work.

The weather is incredibly hot, I have not seen a single cloud since we descending through them on our approach into the airport on thursday.  From here I can see 3 large tankers waiting to empty their cargo of fresh drinking water [1] – they dont seem to have moved in over 2 days. Odd considering the state of the water in Cyrpus.

I leave tomorrow afternoon, which wont be a moment too soon.  Whilst I am away on business trips I dont really feel all that relaxed and with the extremley slow pace of life in Cyprus I just dont like being here.  Bring on tomorrow afternoon, and my 5 hour flight home.

Hmm home.  Proper tea, wind, rain, English sun, and my wife.   Yeah.. hmmm home.
