    When we woke up this morning there was a friendly pigeon on the balcony. We fed it seeds from our hands.

    Today’s challenge was to drive up to the top of the volcano.

  3. Edit

    We stopped for some patatas bravas and Canarian potatoes half way up.

  4. Facebook Checkin at Teide at 31 Jan 12:38

      As we got near the top, it started to resemble the Grand Canyon. We wandered in to the middle of the huge lava pit.

      We then drove towards the big rocks, so we could climb on top of them. Jesus was doing the same.

      We then drove to the top of the volcano which resembles the moon. Dad told us that they used this landscape to test the moon buggy before taking it in to space.

    6. Edit

      There was some snow on the ground, so we had a mini snowball fight.

    7. Edit

      We drove down the other side of the mountain which was very misty and creepy.

  5. Checkin at PUERTO DE LA CRUZ
    1. Edit

      At the bottom we hit Porte de la Cruz, which was a very pretty town.

    2. Edit

      We walked through the square, which was really pretty and there was a nice dog.

      We went for lunch at El Bosquecillo and I had an omelette.

    5. Edit

      Afterwards we went for a walk by the sea. Tom made friends with the locals and took lots of arty photos with my camera.

  6. Checkin at Restaurante Rancho Grande
    1. Edit

      We then went for cake in a really nice restaurant. There was so much choice… I wanted to try one of everything. I went for a chocolate and orange gateau which had meringue pieces on top. It was amazing!

  7. Edit

    Afterwards we walked down the steps to the shore. The waves were crashing violently against the rocks.

    We had a look in the rock pools while trying not to slip on the green algae. There were hundreds of fish in one.

  11. Edit

    There was a little alter buried high up in the rock wall. I've seen so many of these throughout the holiday.

  12. Edit

    We found Tom his ideal cereal in the supermarket.

  13. Checkin at Playa Jardin
    1. Edit

      On the way home we stopped at Playa Jardin just in time to watch the sunset. This was one of the black beaches.

  14. Checkin at Sunset Bay Adeje
    1. Edit

      It took ages to drive home through the windy little mountain roads. We had dinner and then had some of the cakes we brought back from the bakery. Tom and I had nutty cakes and a marzipan strawberry. I got my Dad a volcano rock cake.
