May 21st, 2008

I found very interesting site of Gran Canary Island, so below I put a link to it - for everybody who wants to know more about this beautiful island. This site I show you is about Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, but as I saw it contains informations about all interesting places here. So this […]

children toys

May 8th, 2008

Again Vecindario and Avenida de Canarias. Through all this street, and not only in this town - as it turned out, are the little “playgrounds” for children. Some kind of seesaws. The swinging flowers, elephants, cars and others. Very nice idea.

Hotel bodyguard

May 7th, 2008

Hotel in Vecindario. At Avenida de Canarias - the main street in town and the longest on the island.
And inside the hotel of course permanent redecoration. And a big cactus, as you can see - blocking an entrance to hotel :) The cactus-bodyguard hehe

where is the market?

May 6th, 2008

Somewhere in Telde, in a San Francisco district. Among the buildings and streets a little nook. And here, far away from shops - two market-carriages :)

Actually it’s not first time I see market-carriages far from markets. Here you can see them everywhere: inside houses, in garages, on a parking places, in a ditches, etc. Everywhere […]

just dinner?

April 28th, 2008

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 […]

La Ranita

April 23rd, 2008

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 :)

Windmill

April 22nd, 2008

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 […]

Need some air?

April 19th, 2008

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 […]

Center of Las Palmas

April 18th, 2008

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
