Southern Spain in pictures

Not really feeling it, you guys.  Let's just pretend we're in Southern Spain and Tenerife, ok?  I've never showed you any pictures from our adventure back in April, and today seems like a good day to do so.

Alhambra, Granada

Playa de las Americas, Tenerife

Reflection of Alhambra in boyfriend's glasses.  Hehe.

Punta de Teno, Teno lighthouse.Westernmost point in Tenerife.  Violated rental car agreement to get out to this lighthouse.

Mijas

Papas arragudas, Canarian cuisine from Tenerife

La Orotava. Amazed at how you just walk right out into the street from your door.

Playa de la Tejita, at the base of Montana Roja.  We asked our hotel where a smaller, closer, less populated beach was.  They suggested this.  Nude beach.  Naked, old men, running on hot sand.  Not exactly the spanish scene i had in mind.

All the wines made in Tenerife.  We bought 4 bottles.  3 made it home safely.  The most expensive, the one
intended for me, broke.  Tip-wrap each bottle individually.  Just because it survives one plane ride intact does not mean it will survive the long one home.

 

El Tiede, Tenerife, tallest peak in Spain.

Everyone keeps asking where we're going next, and i think we'll stick a little closer to home.  Any statestide suggestions?? 

Also, i'm one follower away from 400!  Woo hoo!  Lurkers/readers-Can we make this happen?  With a bit of a buffer, too, if you don't mind? 

You can catch me here: wayfaring weds and weekend bloggy reading.
