Showers. As J says, this is the greenest Cyprus has ever looked. We separate - he taking the umbrella for the longer walk to Metro and the bakery, where he is also welcomed back (at the little bakery, not the supermarket). I go, meanwhile, to the greengrocer's. Not only is everything good and fresh (so you always buy more than you expect to) but nothing is pre-packaged, so you can buy exactly what you want - three carrots, two potatoes, etc.

Finish unpacking the boxes, four of them, that have been stored here over the summer. Here are the microwave, a couple of extra pots, our second hand radio, the candles ahd holders, a set of mugs, and even the Christmas decorations with all the little wooden people 0 angels and drummers and choristers and snowmen. And our little stained glass (probably more accurately stained plastic) Christmas tree. It's like Christmas opening up and decorating.
