Long weekend

Postby alex_ruffneck » Sat Mar 05, 2011 10:31 am

What's everyone doing? Got some work stuff to finish off, then i'm gonna make some plans. Not sure about the carnival, is it actually any good? Depends what you're into i guess.
I went to troodos last weekend to see the snow, this weekend i want to do something equally extreme :lol:

I will go to see the parade tomorrow. If you haven't seen it before then you should go at least once. But only if you are in Limassol ;)

Parking can be a problem unless you come early or you are willing to walk a bit. I live a bit far so usually we drive on the coast road for as much as we can and when we hit the traffic jam we just park and then walk for 2-3 Kilometers.

uh, went to see Limasol carnival last Sunday, parked my car some where i thought few minutes walking from the square where the carnnival is held, end up walking for miles to be perved at by some +60 perv who obviosly was wankered :-/ , it is kind of ok to see but really isnt that big deal, untrained people in customs !!!

you would think they will dance or do moves rather than walking and jumping around like idiots... too crowded and not worth driving all the way from Pafos ....

I can’t think of too many things more boring than driving a family car for 30 minutes or longer… :?

Yes it would be boring if you didn't have some place nice to go to.

In Sydney it can take up to 1.5 hours to drive from the Western Suburbs to the CBD. I couldn't think of anything worse which is why I have only lived in the inner suburbs and then go to the beach shack in the country when I have some time off. That is about a 2 hour drive to get there, which is nothing really.

We are into our big 4WDs here since the intention is to one day drive around Australia and go camping in the Flinders Rangers and what not, and to tow the boat back to the city which I usually garage at the shack!

I don't find this boring at all!
