Garden worth visiting

If your are spending some time on Gran Canaria and are a little tired of the Beach and Sand, why not take a drive or Bus to Teror.  There you can either walk around the famous Church, the Museum and the Village or go a little further to visit the Finca Osorio.  The Finca not only has beautiful ways for walking with a variety of routs, it also has a Farm where you can visit the Animals.

Another great Aspect are the collection of Trees and Plants there in and around the Gardens.

So realy a place well worth visiting.  If you have time take a Picknick, as it has a nicely situated Picknick area with Tables and Benches.  And the View from some places on the Finca are breath taking.

Here some Pictures i took today:

Fiesta Romeria in Teror

Yesterday evening was the Fiesta Romeria in Teror.  Once again the atmosphere was just unbelievable.  The people were singing and dancing in the streets wearing their traditional costumes.  From all around the area the different Villages displayed their products on beautifully decorated carts.

And you even were offered tastes of the local products.  It was once again a very successful evening with lots of fun, singing and dancing until the early hours of the morning, until it was finished off with a huge firework display.

Walking around Teror

I had to take the car to the Garage this morning, and decided to walk it back.  Unfortunatly i did not take into consideration that it was all uphill, and by the time i got home over an hourr later, i was wet through right to my underwear.

This afternoon i was feeling fit again, grabbed Gypsie and off we went back down to Miraflor.  The weather was at its finest, and the only thing that put a dampner on the whole journey, was the traffic.

Here a few Pictures of our trip.
