Looking much better! The Mavrokolympos Dam, Paphos District, Cyprus on 19 February 2009
Over the last few weeks it’s rained a lot in Cyprus!

Having now lived through the shortages, with a bit of common sense and economical use of water, there isn’t a major problem.
Rainstorm in Paphos! When it rains, it rains so hard the roads flood in minutes!
