Vicksol Maspalomas

... far more food than when Paul did the trip last time...I wonder why that is?? Hope the boat doesn´t sink.

Sorting out all the food into individual days/meals wasn´t so much fun, particualry as we had to remove all cardboard and labels from tins because cockroaches lay their eggs there. The last thing we need is a cockroach infestation in the middle of the atlantic! We have some really yummy meals planned....pasta with tinned ...

... our friend Rodney then got the 2pm bus to the airport was quite worried about the flight because in England they had really bad weather and 70mph winds all week however the weather clear by the time we flew back :-D
Our flight left 15 mins late however we arrive 15 minutes before schedule and England was very cold Bring on April for my year of Backpacking :-)

... had some type of hippy festival thing going on in Las Palmas bus staion area which was really cool and about 40 little stores to look about then we went for a walk down the port area then got the bus back and had a quiet night in watching spanish tv which was quite good even though i didnt understand it lol..

... outdoors and didnt look very surcure from someone theifing your stuff!!


They let us take our bag on the camel and took a picture while
we set off which i later purchased for 5 euros which i thought was
quite good.
It was bout 30 degrees when going through the dunes and
he ever offered to take a picture for us with our personal cameras
which i thought was good because normally they wouldnt so you ...

... then went and draged josh out of bed and we walked up the beach 5 miles to Maspalomas, i was swimming in the sea most the way and fighting against the waves which were really big and strong and kept nearly knocking me over.
Early night tonight then it will be my birthday 2moro :-D hoping to go on some sort of boat trip in the next couple days..

... in Maspalomas and looked about the shops didnt
buy anything though all designer shops and cost bout 60 euros for a
t-shirt.. The temperture is 30 degrees and there is not a cloud in the
sky. Got a bus back to the hotel which was a good price. Then went to
reception and they changed us to the 6th floor with a sea view made so
much difffernce and am so happy now cuz josh has stop being grumpy
about it lol .

Adios

Life is good, even when ...

... 8217;- it resembling psychosis- though it’s really just the opposite- sociolinguistics- reflecting the social situation in which it occurs. The hired help had no such attitudes of course, many of them South American, and it occurred no where else, just my hostel where, admittedly, they DO speak English every day with the groovers, and admittedly, my Spanish can get rusty with disuse.

Still it feels ...

Durante esses dias, passeamos, fomos ás compras, praia e piscina, comemoooos (muito mais do que deviamos), mas foi tudo muito calmo e correu ás mil maravilhas. (Os meus pais gostam do David)

Tirando a minha irmã Mafalda lhe ter dado uma gastroentrite, foi tudo optimo.. Só faltou o Luís para a Familia estar completa. A companhia da Mónica tambem é sempre muito divertida.

... 17 anos, sair com os amigos todas as noites até ser de manhã, ficarmos todos juntos e todas as coisas que se fazem na viagem de finalistas.
Foi ai, que conheci o David. (Conheci, como quem diz, comecei a falar com ele. Porque já o conhecia há anos.)
 
Desde logo ficamos grandes amigos. Nessa semana até fizemos os dois um piercing... Basicamente nunca mais nos largámos. :D
