"This is not a Holiday!"



Neither does the sun usually burn off the cloud until at least 11 am so we have been doing our bits of business and admin in the mornings. We have had some memorable queues at the Post Office, but have sorted out a dodgy Satellite box, fridge hinges, wardrobe doors, broken sunbed slats, inflated bank charges, warped bike wheel, dead aloe vera and the internet! Last Wednesday we took the bus to the capital Puerto del Rosario.
Not a great success on the "tasks" front as the big shops we wanted to visit did surprisingly take siesta. This left us stuck on an industrial estate with no transport.. Never mind - the city is being spruced up and it's pleasant to walk round. Cruise ships such as the Aida - above - now visit, and there is a trail of new sculptures, such as the one shown, which seems particularly apt!
