A lot of cyprus is now available in pretty good resolution, both in the south and the north. I've been waiting for this for a long time - i can see my mum and dads villages, my bro's house in limassol, varosha, kyrenia - go and have a look now
:lol:

Just had a quick look along Limassol front. It seems as though these are old images to me. as I said only had a quick look but will have a proper look tomorrow when I will have more time.

I didn't have google earth on my PC so I got the last 4 Beta version. The images of Cyprus are finally good! Look to the left of the salt lake in Limassol. What are those huge circular things in the British bases??? I counted 14 of them!

Yeah, the images seem to be very old. They do not show up road works on Christaki Kranou street in Limassol which started around one and a half years ago and still did not finish yet.
