A Beautiful Day in Kyrenia


Shortly before Marce finished his tour and left, we spent the day together in Kyrenia and explored Kyrenia castle. It was incredible. Kyrenia castle has the remains of a large ship inside, and the former holding, well, holes, of some unfortunate royal prisoners. Evidently, a jealous queen threw her husband's pregnant mistress underground while he was off at war. After scouting out the castle and checking out the view from the rooftop, we sat and drank sarip (a lovely hot Cypriot drink made with orchid tips) by Kyrenia harbor. It was the perfect day.
