We flew back on Sunday 1oth and the rain followed us! Fuerte got the downpour through to Monday!We stayed for 13 sterling per night at the Fiesta Corralejo Gardens - an entirely British complex conveniently located but out of fashion and not too good as a sun-trap! whilst there we did many of the things we would do from our own home, including bike rides. The weather got better, but we were driven off the beach on Saturday by sudden easterly wind.
The highlight of the week was undoubtedly the 50th birthday party of Dave - a friend, man-about-town and now our window cleaner. The do was at Rosie O'Grady's and Jill lay on a fine spread! Family from Yorkshire aged 9 to 90 had come over (such as his auntie - above) as were so many friends from over the years (such as Gary from downstairs!)
It was a surreal experience! We could have been in England,, and yet..!
Many Happy Returns, Dave!
