7th March 2026

Plenty
time to enjoy the view from our Larnaca apartment
We (Doreen, grandson Itamar and I)
have
been stuck in Cyprus for nearly a week, because of the war with Iran.
Itamar flies back to Tel Aviv
tomorrow. We were due to fly to Paris from Israel for a meeting of the
World Bridge
Federation Laws Committee on Tuesday 10th but there was no way we could
get
to Israel in time and in any case it appears that the flight from Tel
Aviv is cancelled. So we decided to fly to and from Paris via
Larnaca. From Larnaca we will then return to Israel. Our 4-5 day trip
to Larnaca with Itamar has become a 2 week trip.
Fortunately, we have our comfortable apartment to enjoy in
Larnaca, so
from that aspect we did not "suffer" too much. Also it was a chance
for Itamar to see some more of Cyprus in-between his studying periods.
THIS
WEEK'S NEWS
- Itamar flies back to Israel tomorrow. We enjoyed having him
and showing him around Cyprus; this week Paphos, Agia Napa,
Aphrodite's
Rock, Cavo Greko, Famagusta lookout). He also enjoyed various eating experiences.
- My next update will be from Paris. As I have intensive
meetings while there, and will only leave next Saturday, my site might
be a little delayed.
