After three weeks of hard work it is time to relax and unwind for a day. Some of the team caught a minibus and explored the nearby Rocks of Aphrodite where according to legend the ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty was born in the foam of water, and then onto the Roman settlement of Kourion to explore the reconstructed theatre for comparison with ours at Paphos. Then it was back to Paphos where the team had a BBQ at one of the local bars run by an Australian Cypriot. We showed our millinery skills by having a competition to make the best hat. Can you pick the winner? These days are fun and it allows the team to unwind a little before refocusing on next week's excavation and study. The temperatures are still high and so it remains hot and exhausting work so a little time to bond together is always appreciated!

It is your day off; you are supposed to spend the day the right and ideal way. I know that being in the world of theater could mean a lot of internalizations. You need to embrace your character even if you are not on the stage so your portrayal of the role can be more convincing. But you don't have to deprive yourself of the things that you deserve to ahem in the first place. I am glad that you were able to explore the place all together. With al the hard work that you exerted, you guys simps deserved it!
