Well the day on the black sand beach was awesome, however I am a bit crispy. Crista and Cheryl convinced me to go snorkling, despite my intense misgivings towards the water and fish. Turned out to be very enjoyable as we saw many species of marine life.
We found a wonderful American chain restaurant for dinner, and made humorous comments about the passersby while attempting to sip our frozen beverages, which were pure alcohol. They don´t make margaritas here like they do at home!
Yesterday we drove through the mountains and small villages. Crista, our steadfast driver, honked before each hairpin turn (which came up every few minutes) to be sure that all tour buses, safari vehicals, and other compact cars knew we were coming.
The canary Islands are beautiful, which make up for the fact that customer service does not exist and the people drive like maniacs.
Happy 25th Birthday Laura. Miss you family and friends.
The sunburn will turn into a tan....that is what Crista and Cheryl told me.

Sounds like fun! A little aloe and it will be a tan in no time!
aloe! Hah!LOL. Funny story! We bought aloe to put on our gorgeous sunburns, got all slathered in healing stuff and... nearly threw up at the smell. Apparently not all aloe is the same and everything they have over there is the smell of putrid, rotting death!!! So we all had to shower the crap off... so nasty. But it has been long enough so we are looking at Von's beautiful tan, Crista's semi-tan/peeling bits and Cheryl's itty bitty tan/peeling back. Bloody fantastic!!!
