Leaving on New Years Day
... back in France to see if he could meet us in Figueras, and then snacked on some chips. The cash machine refused me money on my French card, so I had to use another card which was definitely overdrawn.
The first ferryboat ride to St Sebastien was rough and both children got seasick. The next boat was more fun, card games for most of the way, all the way back to Tenerife.
The glitter of Los Cristianos appealed to Rosina but we didn't ...

In time we went on a long walk up the baranco seeking more firewood. German Cynthia, reckoned by both Anna and Mark to be ...
Santiago and Beach Life
... br> The waters at the archway were too high to safely wade through. We sojourned a while on Medio though, with Rio and Big Boy, whom I filmed. Previously Big Boy had been so unresponsive to any of our passing Hola's, but now he was beaming big smiles and was such an endearing young man. He was Russian, named Miroslav, Mir for short, and he had quite quirkily picked up an Irish accent from time spent in Ireland. He'd come to the Canaries to study ...
