We've been here a few times before, and never much cared for the place, so left the ship this morning intending to merely have a walk in the sunshine. We started off in the town centre, together with lots of other tourists from the 3 ships which are here today - Boudicca, Balmoral and P&O's Artemis. Wandering off the beaten track we found lots of things to interest us - a pedestrianised old street now mainly housing bars and cafes, a 16th century church with an amazing interior, and the highlight of our long walk was the modern theatre beside the sea, built in concrete in a Sydney Opera House sort of style.
Tropical Night and the usual mixture of Hawaiian shirts, bright coloured dresses and floral leis prevailed, but two women had taken the dress code very seriously and wore grass skirts over their swimming costumes! The tropical themed show was followed by a late night deck party as we sailed away from Tenerife. A barbecue was available, but no, we didn't eat a thing. You may not believe this, but... I AM FULL.

Full Janet = are you sure??? Have you eaten all the chocolate decorations?
ReplyDeleteYou still sound like you are enjoying and have found new things to see in the Canaries.
All well here - snow completely disappeared. Jane doing really well. Dave has popped round this pm with a couple of bits and says that she is on a walking stick
Hope the Captain reverses in tomorrow !

Almost eaten all the chocs off the tree now - so I bought a big bag of Maltesers in the shop last night, just in case...!
