Yiasou from Cyprus!

Hey all. I have been in Cyprus now for 2 weeks and have basically caught up with most of my family which has been great! I have mainly stayed with my grandparents which are so old now... but so damm funny. My grandmother has cooked all of my fav cypriot dishes and ive been loving it. I have put on 2kg since I got here but I have attempted to keep the fitness up and is going well except for the gut... but the food is soo tasty that I'll sacrifice looks to eat more. The lamb here is GOLD... it really does taste different. The beef here is not that exciting. The pork and chicken though are excpetional as well when done on the souvla (greek spit).

Anyways... enough bout food. I have not really been out much except for a few times but have not been huge. When Neil gets here next week the partyin will begin again. I have recharged the batteries by gettin plenty of sleep, days at the beach, workin on my tan and eating good food.

Saw the Simpsons movie last night with Greek subtitles on the smallest screen ever. No one can drive here... no one wears seatbelts, helmets or use indicators. Everyone beeps at you for obeying the road rules. It's comedy. Went to the bank the other day and double parked the car for 15mins on a main st, left the windows open and no one said a thing. As frustratin as it is everyone gets to their destinations eventually.

I went out with my cuzins (Antonis' sisters), one was 18 but the other only 15. No one asks for ID here so most of the clubs and bars have very young guys and girls. Feel bad even checkin them out as I know they are all under 18.

Anyways... hope all is well in the land of OZ .
