Cats and St. Lazarus Church<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Several things, quickly, before I go to the beach…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feral cats prefer meat over potatoes, and fish over chicken. There are more cats than humans on the island of Cyprus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0396\u039f\u03a1\u03a0\u039f\u03a3 is an excellent bakery where we stop most mornings before driving East along the coast from Larnaca to Vigla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no sand in Larnaca, only sandy dirt, which now coats the floors of our apartment, collecting in far corners and sticking to my feet, such that even after a shower, I always deposit a small amount at the foot of the bed, between the sheets. Speaking of which, our beds are made up with two top sheets. Waking up is like finding oneself in a confusing world of drapery and bare mattresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The greatest shock has been the humidity. Portland oscillates between dry heat and damp cold; Larnaca stays hot and begins and ends each day with a surprising amount of humidity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I look forward to playing music for the group on site. Tom likes MF DOOM best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are no waves or fish. The beach is serene at night, the sky turns taupe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good-bye.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
