We were in Cyprus for one week, living in an apartment by the beach! It was really nice, because every morning I would read my book and listen to music on the balcony, which had a great view of the Mediterranean Sea. Then, my parents would come home from getting coffee and bring us pastries. We would do school work (or other work) during the day when it was so hot outside and have dinner out in the evening… followed by swimming and running. I ran with Findlay and Tate, and I got a 7:36 mile and then a 7:14 mile!
The day we arrived, we landed at midnight and went to bed at 3a.m.! I fell asleep so quickly! One fun thing about walking around was seeing some really cute (and grouchy-looking) cats (and a really sweet dog called Lungo). They were all sorts of shapes and sizes; some were big, some looked like they were two pounds, some pure colored, some white and caramel, and sadly, one dead kitten 😞. I always wanted to pet one and give it food and affection. And finally, one night, I got my chance! We were eating some delicious burgers for dinner, and we saw a cat that was probably 3 inches wide! I got a burger with bacon, and bacon on burgers is not my favorite thing, so I took it off. At the end of dinner, my parents told me I could rip my bacon into tiny pieces and give it to the cat. I did that, and he loved it! I can still see the scratches on my hand from that eager cat!
