Spanish people, and of course also the canarians, used to drink wine very often. Especially to dinner, which is the main dish during the day. And very big too. Many restaurants have many different kind of wines in their wine bars or wine cellar. Here’s the example of one of it.
And I must admit that […]
Today we decided to have dinner in a restaurant. We chose the one in El Ingles. Actually I don’t like El Ingles, but why not try to convince myself that all of the time I was wrong about it?
We ordered food, which really was was very tasty, especially meat. And everything was nice till the […]
The iron fishermen sitting on the dock of the bay in Playa de Arinaga. Next to him a bucket full of iron fishes. Nice :) From far away he looks like he was alive, real fisherman doing his fishing..
This is an emblem of Canary Islands. As you can see: two dogs - characteristic for canarias, and in the middle part an image of all seven islands. One of them you can find in Las Palmas, on the government building.
City of Aguimes, the old town, very pleasant and quiet place. Old houses, sculptures. Very nice place. In one of the narrow street little shop, closed of course, La Ranita. Means “frog” in english. For me it’s little comic, but, I believe, not everybody see it funny :)
We’re on a way from Vecindario to Carrizal, travelling by old local road. On our right we’re passing a building looking like a church. When we look closer we’ll see it’s a art-center. Of course it’s closed. Behind the wall we can see huge windmill. Seems to be very old. As I said - museum […]
This is one of the sculpture on Las Canteras promenade. In Las Palmas of course. It shows the swimming people as you can surely see ;) In my opinion - author had a good idea to make it this way: looks maybe strange, but interesting.
As I wrote before, on a Canary Islands is rather hot. The temperatures are high, most of the year it’s approximate 25-30 degrees. So mejority of people buy to their houses air condition. Of course most of shops, restaurants, etc. have also air condition to encourage people to come in.
And, as you can see above […]
This is it - centre of Las Palmas, a sea avenue at Las Canteras Beach. Nice buildings, nice promenade full of restaurants and smiling people. And in the center of this - a ruine, the old building, walls painted in graffiti and, what’s interesting, a big palm tree inside :D
This is the interior of elevator in Meloneras (Meloneras is the district near Maspalomas). When I first saw it I couldn’t say a word. This table looks like a calculator!
The most funny thing in this is fact that building, where this lift is placed, has no more then 4 floors ;)
