Green Sea Aparthotel Las Palmas

De tijd hier in Las Palmas gebruiken we om de motor zijn broodnodige onderhoud te laten geven en om de voorraden voor de oversteek naar de Carieb in te slaan.
En om de video beelden van Lanzarote te uploaden. Wat beelden uit het National Park en van het begin van de oversteek naar Las Palmas.

Our boat is moored in the marina at la Palmas (Fact for you Derek: Spains 7th biggest city). The city is pretty dirty and noisy but whilst Nic was here last week we hired a car for a few days and wild camped our way around the island. Again I am suprised at how beatuiful it is - really dramatic mountains and cliffs. Will definitely be back to explore some more and do the trek to the mythical GuiGui beach - a 2 hour climb over a ...

Today was the last day and i got up early and went for breakfast then did then got a bus to Maspalomas and walked back to Playa del Ingles.

Last night went to the Yumbo centre went for a few drinks in a welsh bar which did really cheap drinks then went to Sparkle ...

... to study speech therapy. When I suggested she could help me improve my poor Spanish, she flashed a smile and giggled. I knew exactly what she was thinking - "If you think you have a chance with me, you probably need psychiatric therapy more than speech therapy!"

Anyway, it was a good meal, but not great. The execution wasn't quite up to par, but who cares? The yummiest dish in the restaurant was America! After finishing up dessert ...

After a hectic week of packing and house cleaning, we finally left Orleans for Geneva, where we spent a night at the airport. Arriving in Las Palmas yesterday morning, we started shedding off our sweaters and jackets. Summer is back! Today´s temperature peaked at 32 degrees! Phillip, our skipper and his friend Max, also ...

... primeira viagem como namorados, já foi com sogros :D. 

 O David só chegou lá dois dias depois de mim, pois esteve a fazer um trabalho de verão bem chatinho, ao qual eu me orgulho muito, da sua paciência. Mas depois dele chegar, foi tudo muito bom. Tivemos um grande quarto só para nós com tudo o que tinhamos direito, inclusive um closet e vista para a piscina e para o ...

... foi sem mais nem menos, quando nos conhecemos.
