I have some favourite blogs that I follow and every now and then they seem to disappear. After months, or even years of regular posts suddenly there will be nothing. It always frustrates me. What happened? Where did they go?
And now, here I am silent for more than half a year. It has been a long time since my promised last post but I'm not going to leave you hanging. What indeed has happened?
Life got in the way.
Suddenly at the end of last summer, Manny's mother's health began to turn. We knew this would happen one day and when our help was needed we put everything else aside. Finding ourselves wrapped up in land based concerns didn't leave me any time to finish our Cyrus story. I hope that I'll be able to continue soon.
Meanwhile, I wanted to leave you a few stunning pictures from a local photographer. Two days ago, we made what we hope is our last long drive (for awhile), back from the north. All though the desert we were serenaded by an amazing sunset. We didn't have our camera, but Erez Herrnstadt, who took these pictures regularly photographs the desert and its people. He leads local eco tours of the Negev desert and you can find him on
facebook.
Stay tuned for the second half of our Cyprus story with lots of cruising tips because I really do intend to write it.
