Tenerife day 8

Everything was packed up at Guacimara (http://igueste.com/) and we were on the road away from Igueste by 8:30am. We arrived at the airport in plenty of time, filling up the car with diesel (only 28 Euros!) just before the drop off point. Ady and I had no queue at all for the Monarch bag drop…

Ady and I spent the day lazing on the terrace. Mum and Dad took a short walk along the beach in the morning. We had lunch at the house. Late afternoon we drove to San Andres and had tea at Restaurant Pepin. After tea we drove on to Santa Cruz and walked around the auditorio…

Ady and I went on the walk that mum and dad did on Tuesday. We made it all the way to Las Casillas and had lunch in a shady spot just after the abandoned village. The views were amazing all the way up, but it was extremely hot. After lunch we carried on a short…

Mum and Dad walked almost to Lomo de las Casillas. Ady and I had a lazy day on the sun loungers. We went for a short walk down to the shore and the cemetery after lunch. Mum and Dad got back just after 5pm and we had a barbeque.

We all walked up the hill towards El Semaforo. Mum and Dad made it part of the way, then headed back down the hill and walked around a bit more of the town. Ady and I made it almost to the old semaphore station, but decided it wasn’t worth going all the way down to…

Ady and I flew from Manchester to Tenerife South with Jet2. Taxi was booked for 6:30am and, thanks to the self bag drop from Jet2, we were through check in and security in plenty of time. I bought a new headset for my phone and we grabbed some snacks from Boots. Our flight departed about…
