Our adventure to Troodos !!

Filed under: Places !!

    Suddenly one fine morning we decided to go out to Troodos. Its a crazy idea, that is why I liked it. So, four of us got ready to go. We took our “Raam Pyari”, its our car, its her nick name :P .

    Just after 10 mins, we got away from the road to Troodos and gone in some other direction. After, 30 mins of driving finally we reached a place to eat. We had burgers and stuff, road-side mobile cafes gives really good taste. Chicken burger was awesome.

    Finally, with the cafe owners help we got onto the right way to troodos. After, 30 more mins we reached a view point and stopped our car there. It was a great view, we had some snaps taken and back onto the road. It started to rain. The weather was getting bad, but that didnt stop us from going there. Its been a dream for me to play with snow. I thought, this should be it… what ever happends am gonna touch the snow today !!!

    After 25 kms from Limassol, it just started to snow. We first thought they are rain drops, but God!!, it was snow, my first sight of snow. Its like heaven’s shower. A great sight. We started to go further with more excitement and was anxious to see more of it, after 5 more kms , there was proper snow, like little children we got out of the car and started throwing snow balls at each other. We got some snaps and we thought we should go further..

    People coming from the opposite side started warning us to go back.. but, we weren’t ready to do it. So, we went further more, now, the weather got really bad. One of my friends started saying, “lets go back, its really getting weird”. Suddenly, some scenes from “Final Destination” started to play in my brain. Some people warn the hero and co to go back or something like that, but they never listen and they end up dying.

    I started to freak out, the car was skidding pretty bad and people started to warn seriously. I got really freaked out and yelled at one of my friends, I completely lost it. Anyway, I was ok pretty fast and said sorry etc., But, suddenly it all turned from excitement to panic. God, it was skidding like crazy. Finally we stopped at some house [better say, car got stuck] and I took my first step in the snow.. it was like heaven, everything was covered white, it was still snowing, we were 4 kms away from Troodos. A thick layer of snow covered the road [Snow was one feet above the road.] We took some snaps, played for some time and decided to go back while two among us started saying ” We should go further”.

    When we started the car and moved it a bit front we understood its not safe to stay here or go further, just lets go back. We took a U -Turn , it was really a U - turn, I mean only rear wheels were moving and the car was just dragged onto the road. When brakes and hand break were applied the car went four feet further and then it stopped, now that was our position. How can we even stop it ??
