So this is long overdue, but as I'm on exam leave I've been pretty busy. I got back from sunny Tenerife two weeks ago and already it seems my much loved tan is beginning to fade. I really miss the great weather and lazy days ; Scotland is soo rainy and cold - i really don't like it. I loved it in Tenerife thought, the weather there is amazingg and everything there is soo much prettier than it is here ....
This is mine and my brothers room being cleaned out after we left. It was really nice and we had our own fridge to pig out from which was mostly full of Oreos, peanut butter and haribo. Our midnight snacks were the best. There wasn't a TV but that really wasn't a problem at all as we were rarely ever in the apartment due to the weather. But every night we'd watch a film on my brothers ipod using the ipod speakers, the screen was soo tiny it must have looked pretty funny. It was good though, i liked good luck chuck so we watched that most.
This was the laguna at the back of the pool area. It was a natural sea water pool full with colourful fish and huge red crabs which i was pretty scared of - the move so fast and their pincher things were massive.
That's my dad diving in, i did it too - quite allot ; it was so much fun because it was really deep and you could jump or dive off all the rocks.
That was the pool. It had sea water in it which was kinda cool because it was like being at the beach but without the annoying sticky sand. It was also freeezing which was great as sunbathing in 25 degrees is overwhelmingly hot and as soon as you jump in the pool you are instantly cooled. I don't think i could have coped without it orrr the copious amounts of Hawaiian tropic sun lotion that i applied each day - without that i would have been red raw instead of beautifully sun kissed.
These girls had a water fight ; it was really funny to watch as one of the just really didn't want to .join in and they all kept ganging up on her so she was screaming and shouting. Made me laugh;
This was the cost line of the south side of the Island, right next to the pool. These rocks were crawling with huge creepy crabs which were bright red. But i couldn't get a picture because as soon as you make a noise or move they all scurry away under the rocks. I also got in trouble from the coastguard as we weren't supposed to go down there. opps.
That was the harbour, we walked along it each night after we got ice cream. You can see really far out from up there ; we even seen dolphins twice. We also went on a bout trip out to see whales and dolphins which was amazzing and soo beautiful, it was the best part of the holiday but the pictures got ruined by a big splash from one of the whales.
It wass pretty, veryy.
That's the view from my mum and dad's apartment. Not as good as ours though ....
Best till last , our balcony view. The colours of this place are amazing. I loved watching all the boats coming in and out. There were little fish in the harbour too which i could see from the balcony ; we'd throw bits of bread and sweets in the water for them and watch them eat them all.
The holiday was pretty great. I don't really get to go away ofter so when i do i make the most of it. I got to wear allot of really nice clothes and i almost bought a Pepe jeans red dress for $80 but i decided to save my money for when i got to Paris with my friends Kate and Rachel, that's going to be amazzzing - really can't wait.
I want to see all the designer shops and visit all the thrift stores and markets.
i want to go now ....
