 Not particularly unusual to see a tractor on the road in our area, though less common to find it lined up with the other vehicles outside the supermarket. Note that this is a Massey Ferguson, although that no longer means Canadian and it was probably made in France.

Lapta is a village at heart. Citrus, olive and carob trees have grown here for centuries and it is not uncommon to go past paddocks with goats or to see chickens on the roads or hear a rooster at dawn. Particularly true as the community spreads uphill from the sea and the commercial strip along the main road from Girne.
