Final Weeks




So... I've neglected to load pictures the last few weeks. Oops.
6 days until I return to the states... still not quite sure what to think about that.

Ahoy, matey!





Our most adventurous day involved renting a car, driving down the coast a few hours to the south part of the island and getting on a big 'ol pirate boat for a few hours of whale watching.
We were fortunate and saw plentiful whales and dolphins (while getting a nice tan!)
It's just too bad they don't do flips and tricks like at Seaworld...

Playa Jardin- Tenerife




Beaches in Tenerife = superb. The sand/rocks are black from the volcanic action on the island. One would think that black sand would scald the bottom of your feet, but it was suprisingly not too hot at all. In fact, I think regular sand is hotter.
What is it about the sound of waves crashing that is so theraputic?
