The Karpaz Penisula is the long skinny part of Cyprus which points east. It is a beautiful, relatively untouched part of the island. Some friends and I went out for the weekend, and it was beautiful. Golden beaches, donkeys, Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots living in harmony (because they are so far from all of the political nonsense), and such sweet water.

| Ottoman architecture everywhere |

| aptly named Golden Beach |

| Mosiacs everywhere, even in the ruins of a 14th century monastery on the Carpaz |
 |
| And I FINALLY saw some Cypriot donkeys, after a year of hearing about them |
