A Little Delay

The University was on break and we decided to go on a little vacation the week before the new semester started.  We were looking for warmth without having to travel too far.  So we decided on Cyprus.

We had to leave at 5 AM to catch our flight.  It's a small airport (4 gates) so luckily you don't have to get their too early.  Unfortunately, when we got to the airport our flight had been cancelled and because it's a small airport, there aren't that many flights going out....and the next flight they could get us on was the next day.  We really wanted to spend the day on the beach enjoying warmth....not going back to our apartment with no food and nothing to do.  After talking with the airlines they were willing to put us up in a hotel because of the missed flight.  And.....it wasn't a hotel in the city, it was a resort style hotel up the mountain right next to the ski slopes.

If we weren't going to make it to the warm beaches, this was the best we could do.

The hotel had a kiddy pool that was bearable (not warm, but not freezing) and a much larger, much colder regular pool.  

We didn't have most of our snow clothes, but we were able to rent a sled and spend a little time going up and down a nearby hill.  The girls had fun.  We all had fun.






If we had to delay our vacation a day, this was a good way to do it.
