On 7 December, we stopped in Las Palmas, one of the many Canary Islands that belong to Spain off the western coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean. It was a beautifully warm day and we decided to just enjoy the beach. So, we quickly walked through the main shopping area and picked up our souvenirs and some beach toys and headed to the sand. We rented some chairs and towels and had a really relaxing time enjoying the sun and surf. The kids played in the sand while Mom and Dad enjoyed the views of the ocean and seaside. The beach stretched for miles and was lined with a boardwalk and hotels. Meanwhile, back in Germany, they were being buried with snow and freezing weather. That made us smile! We will be definitely coming back to enjoy the Canary Islands again! After the beach, we strolled back to the boat and enjoyed an actual indoor mall by the port. It was fun to walk through a mall again, something we had not done since leaving the States. That night, the kids enjoyed the magic show with their friends from the cruise, while Mom and Dad enjoyed a quiet dinner. |
