We quickly learned that to make it through a Guernsey winter, one must escape often and to a warm climate! So we headed to Tenerife in the Canary Islands which is not a far boat ride from Morocco, Africa. With volcanic rock, black sand and dramatic cliffs making up the landscape, it was not the typical beach vacation. We enjoyed massive amounts of tapas and sangria and spend an absurd amount of time on lounge chairs at the pool reading books and playing Uno.
Our resort
The cliff path right outside of our restort.
Lunch with a view, and a darn good club sandwich!
Our dolphin and whale watching cruise. We saw plenty of both!!
Masca is one of the most picturesque parts of the island and is located in the northwest at the foot of theTeno Mountains.
Los Gigantes cliffs
Josh's cannon ball
and after a few rum punches I was able to handle the very cold Atlantic Ocean.
Fresh seafood!
Golf...loved the black sand traps
Such a beautiful course!
This was the location of a few of our lunches. We enjoyed watching bowling and drinking a local beer.
On our way to Los Abrigos
Uno tournament and a beer in the sleepy fishermans village.
Last night in Golf del Sur, our favorite tapas spot.
Another fantastic vacation...and for the first time, we arrived back in Guernsey well rested!
