We arrived at Gran Canary in the second half of September. It was warm, but we did not feel the exhausting heat, perhaps because a lightweight refreshing breeze from the ocean was blowing. Yes, and Tuchka gradually walked around the sky. As a result, we, not particularly worrying, lay down to relax in the sun. In the end, in the evening, I have a spouse with sun burns and chills. In connection with the occurrence, we had to postpone our beach holiday for a while and take up the excursion program.
As soon as arriving, we took the car for rent, so armed with the navigator and the guidebook we went to search for adventures. We stayed where we wanted to travel in our mode, did a stop on the pass (they bought different goodies on the market), walked in different cities ...
One of the first global stops was near Roque Nuble. That's where it was necessary to go away from the stop. It's time there is not very strong, so the shoes must be comfortable. I had slippery shoes and it was very hard for rising.
But we are approaching the town of Arucas in which the most beautiful church on the island and there is a physical rum factory.
But the raisin of the town of Firgas. The fountain has already turned off (it is turned off at 5 pm).
We circled about 70% of the island, and the most interesting thing in the central part of the island. I will never forget how because of the height difference, my head got sick (the pills forgotten in the hotel), and the pharmacies are closed, they have Fiesta. Only one cafe was open. We decided to buy me coffee with brandy. We go into this cafe, and the bartender does not speak English! And we only know a pair of keywords in Spanish ... As a result, we have managed to explain, but it looked, of course, funny.
The island itself is very beautiful and interesting. Almost every town has its own highlight, architectural.
After studying the terrain, our skin has managed to come a little more or less good condition. And we returned to the beach holiday.
At first, we decided to go to the beach in Maspalomas, look at the famous Dunes. But this idea did not succeed. Seeing a bunch of homosexual couples in what the mother gave birth to her husband could not stand and we left there.
We walked a little near the beacon and returned to our beach in Playa del Ingles. The ocean was cool for me - although the thermometer showed us the temperature of 21 degrees. Perhaps due to the contrast of temperatures it was difficult for me to go into the water, there were 32 degrees on the street.
This is how dunes on the beach of Playa del Ingles look like.
I recommend visiting Palmitos Park from the entertainment program. There are many animals and interesting shows. Here is a photo from the show with eagles.
Kissing parrots.
Madly liked the show parrots.
After visiting the park, my husband and I were very satisfied, and the children came out with shining faces.
Gran Canaria is a very interesting island. It can relax enjoying the ocean and spend more actively time to explore the culture of the island.
