Continued from April 7
. . . Ready for the wind - here we are a Buffavento.
We met some young people on the path on their way down from the castle, and they tried very hard (jokingly we thought) to discourage us from making the climb. We had a good laugh then continued on our way. They weren't entirely kidding! Thirty minutes later (at least), and many steps up, we made it to the top. It was worth it in the end. Fantastic views and much conjecture on why the heck anyone would want to build it let alone defend it. Can you see the car in the picture?

Then back to Kyrenia for some fabulous swordfish and a local brandy.
To be continued . . .
