Thursday was the day we decided to tour the beautiful island of Gran Canaria.
We had been warned to expect a wide range of temperatures so while it was sunny in Puerto Rico I added extra layers for the coller climes.
Our coach picked us up at 8am and with a number of pick ups we arrived at the island's capital of Las Palmas for a quick stop outside the Alfredo Kraus auditorium - the cultural hub of the island.
Next stop was the magnificent cathedral in Arucas.
Before heading off to the wonderful town of Teror which felt like we were centre stage in an old American western.
Next stop was a fabulous vantage point for Roque Nublo considered to be one of the biggest natural crags in the world.
After a stop to buy some delicious almond cake and local cheese, it was time for a coffee before heading back to our hotel where thankfully the building work had finished for the day.
But not before a final visit to the ubiquitous aloe vera plantation trip.
Dinner was yummy!
Cheers !

Poncho - Monsoon.
You were wise to layer up, we were really chilly in Teror and up the mountains but a small price to pay for being amongst all that beauty! xxx
ReplyDeleteDefinitely. Such a beautiful island.
