For some reason the water tastes really delicious ....

It's almost sweet, and has a velvety feel on the tongue.

Has anyone else noticed some things just feel, taste, sound, look or smell better in Cyprus?

You do make a good point though.Yes some things do,especially in the mountains.

Well that could have been true if it wasn't for the fact that I believe Cyprus would benefit from less tourists ... especially the ones that frequent Ayia Napa ... If I was Director of Tourism I would drive them out personally!

But truly, the number of changing scents I experienced on my way home today ... the salty sea smell, the washed veranda smell, the emerging blossom smell, the clean air smell (between the odd car exhaust )

But what "in the mountains", Mouflon, goats, cedars, pine, sandwiches?

It must be the heat.

Well it's not that hot at the moment .... just your average British summer-time temps....

I guess the water taste is due to a lack of chlorination / fluoridation / passing through Humans 6 times .....

I always speak highly of my London/Thamesis tap-water when given the opportunity. Excellent value for money, environmentally friendly, the best drink of the day and an almost inexhaustible supply.

They do over-do the chlorine occasionally as I told the the water board last year.

Must wash the cars this weekend.

I've tasted water from around a few regions in the UK ... the worst was Anglian (around the Bedford area) ..... it was so foul smelling .... that I stopped drinking tea for about three years ...

Best thing to do with that stuff, bill ... wash the car ....
