Getting to yoga or the gym required quite a lot of walking. After a morning of excavating or cleaning pottery I found myself not in the mood to go. I quickly found my alternatives for exercising. Swimming and walking far distances along the water. I figured these were better anyway because I could be outside and enjoy the beauty of larnaca. I went to the mall with a few other students and bought a pair of goggles and a swim cap. After excavating I would often get a fresh juice/smoothie and then go and swim for about an hour. Usually swimming out to the buoy a few times and other just treading water for a while.  I enjoy plane spotting and discovered if I walked far enough along the coast, I would get to the airport which lines the water. Towards the end I could sit on the beach or in the water and airplanes would fly right over your head before landing. Most of the airplanes were smaller narrow body aircraft. But every evening around 7:15pm there would be a widebody Emirates 777 that landed.
