Tenerife Autumn Trip 2012
We woke up this morning more refreshed. Breakfast is served in the courtyard, it’s very rustic here and the breakfast buffet reflects this. I had muesli, nuts, fruit, yogurt, fresh juice, cheeses, and fresh bread, followed by croissant, cake and coffee. This is very different to the Hotel we
Tenerife Autumn Trip 2012
It is Monday morning, we are checking out of the Jardine Tropical. Now travelling north, have just booked B&B in Garachico. We will travel by bus; the journey will take about an hour and half. It makes me laugh the way we get on the buses with all
Playa de las Americas
Last night we decided to try a night out in Las Americas. Took a taxi from our hotel as it is a bit of a walk into the heart of the town plus had to take into consideration my high heels! Taxi cost around six euros and we asked to
Playa de las Americas
Last night we decided to walk into Las Americas, and ended up walking along Veronica’s strip. There are lots of music bars, clubs, and strange characters around this bit of Las Americas. We were approached by one of these characters, and in the space of a few minutes he

Golf del Sur
Hush now little ones! Auntie Jane is having a sunbath and trying to read her book. For our extra days spent on the Island of Tenerife, we decided to try an all-inclusive package. Normally we would not choose this type of deal, but wanted to see what it was like
I have always loved Seahorses, I think of them as mystical little creatures. They are actually quite intelligent. When we were in Tenerife recently we went to visit Loro Parque and I was surprised to see the Parque had Seahorses there in the aquarium. Since returning I have done some
South Tenerife
At Hollywynd where I was working today, I meet a couple from Scotland. They told me they visited the South of Tenerife [http://etenerifeholidays.co.uk/tenerife-island/south-tenerife] a few years ago and did not like it. They said it was too English. I told them about my travels around
La Laguna
While staying in La Laguna [http://etenerifeholidays.co.uk/tenerife-island/towns-villages/la-laguna] we visited the Museum of the History of Tenerife. Whilst I was at the museum I noticed a well out in the courtyard, I ran over to have a look. It had been cemented over a little way
Went into Costa Cofee, Pete could not get his usual crème Brulee coffee. They have run out, and will not be serving them again until Christmas. Anyway we would much rather get a Barraquito. This is a Canarian coffee speciality. There is no point asking for this in Costa. If
