Johan, Robin and a Trip up North

Johan and Robin flew in from Sweden for a week's visit. Due to the fact that they will not be here for Christmas we decided to make their first Sunday here "Christmas Day".









We then decided to take a trip up to Norther Cyprus and visited the town of Kyrenia. Our first stop was the picturesque Harbour.


















We then wandered up to Bellapais Monastery  which  is located at the foot of the Five Finger Mountain Range with panoramic views of Kyrenia Town and its new harbour. The Monastery is situated approximately 2 miles from Kyrenia Town.




















Our final stop was the ruined castle of St Hilarion which also lies just outside Kyrenia in the Five finger Mountain range. The position of the Castle gives superb views along the Northern coastline of Cyprus.
