Fun in the Sun
A week in Tenerife was certainly what the doctor ordered. However, if I don’t take a break from alcohol for the next week or so then I will be seeing far more of doctors than I would wish. That does seem to be the tenor of holidays though, drink, sweat it out, drink some more.
We had some nice apartments a way back from the main strip of Playa des Las Americas. About a 5-10 minute walk (or 15 minute stagger depending on the amount of weaving). This allowed us to go party hardy until the wee hours (7am one morning .. I thought my days of doing that were long over) but still have some uninterrupted kip to sleep it off. Its a pretty friendly place we found the only fly in the ointment being the ‘greeters’ for bars and restaurants who don’t allow you to go more than 2 steps without getting in your face (which isn’t so much of a problem if they are cute, admittedly).
As usual, I took a camera with me but completely forgot to do anything with it (like even take it out of the bag). I view holidays as things to be experienced not recorded but then I am crap with remembering to take photos at any other time as well.
