764. Canary Islands Part 4 | Arucas and Teror

Arucas Gran Canaria

Earlier this week, we visited two nearby towns called Arucas and Teror. They were both really small and cozy, and quite devoid of people. We first went to Arucas and had lunch. I had a paella (my first since arriving in Spain).

After Arucas, we visited Teror which many consider as the most beautiful town on this island. It's also the oldest town here. I really liked the architecture and mountain views there. Many of the houses have wooden balconies.

762. Canary Islands Part 2 | Beach Days

Las Canteras Beach

The past couple mornings we have gone to the beach to relax for a bit before starting our day. I bring a book to read and work on my tan (I am pretty dark already). I brought 6 books on this trip and haven't had time to read until now. It's nice to get back into it again. I wish I had more time to read though..even though it seems like I've been relaxing a lot here I've also been pretty busy with work.

It's Thanksgiving now in Canada (Happy Thanksgiving!). It's strange to miss the Fall season this year and I do miss baking all my pumpkin things. So far it feels like a really long summer.

An accidental shot I took while laying down. Was about to delete it but I thought it looked cute.

Dinner one night at El Gallo Feliz. I really liked it! This vegetable soup was delicious and overflowing with vegetables.

By the time our mains came it was already dark. I got the schnitzel.
