A co-worker let me know that there will be a rugby match between Cyprus and Azerbaijan teams this Saturday, March 6th, 2010. The game will take place in Pafos at Paphiako Stadium, which is opposite the McDonalds restaurant. The kick off is at 14:30. The entrance is free!
The weather forecast is warm and sunny with scattered clouds, which should make for a good day outside and easy photo opportunity.
Famagusta Gazzette reported on November 16th:
The new Paphos International Airport will be fully operational from midnight tonight, marking the end of flights to the old terminal.
Hermes, which manages the airports in Cyprus, announced that the new building covers 18,500 square metres and has the capacity to serve about 2.7 million passengers per year.
It has 28 check in counters, three luggage conveyor belts, four security arches, a VIP lounge and specially equipped lounges for businesspeople, information systems for passengers and parking places with a capacity of 800 vehicles. It is estimated that around 1,800 people will be employed.
I’ve been to the upgraded airport a couple of month before it was officially launched and I have to say that I was really impressed. It’s bigger, cleaner, better organized and equipped, and feels like a real airport. The one that was there before was more like a village utility building for accidental landings.
It’ll be interesting to see how the flight schedules and distribution will change, especially with Larnaca airport undergoing upgrade as well.
Next meeting of Road Safety and Advanced Driving Society (RoADS) has been scheduled for 19:00 on October 20th, 2005. The meeting will take place in The Haven Coffee Bar, Pafos. You can find the map and more information about the location here.
I am very interested in getting there, but with my schedule for October 20th I am not sure I will be able to. I’ll keep my fingers crossed though and maybe I will get lucky.
Almost a year ago I mentioned that Pafos Bird Park was open and accepting visitors. Finally, I managed to go there and see for my own what and how good it is. Vladimir, Olga, and Maxim came along.
