A sub-tropical Christmas












The weather improved in the days running up to Xmas Day. The surf was up. This is the slower of the two Lanzarote ferries going past the small island of Lobos en route to Playa Blanca.

On Christmas Eve there was glorious sunshine and we watched fishermen gutting on tables in the harbour shallows from one of our favourite spots:- Africa's little shack with the collared doves.








In Spanish style we ate our family meal that evening. (Pheasants from Oxford Covered Market)










Christmas Day, and the traditional dip in the pool! This year only Ruth even tried as despite the bright sun the unheated pool has been glacial!










Did she follow through?
