The sun continues to shine on La Palma, here in Canary island number 6 or should that be 7? Someone really should consider a better system of island identification, well consider Santa Cruz de La Palma, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, andnaturally La Palma is in the province of Tenerife..even the postal service gets confused. Gran Canaria, is in the province of, wait for it, Las Palmas, I think.
Around my easterly side of the chestnut shaped island which I call home there are a host of , well villages? San Simon is a typical example of maybe one house and a dog. OK perhaps some cats and a goat or so. So this is the countryside or campo if you prefer.
There are a couple of fair sized towns, the capital Santa Cruz has a couple of not so skyscrapers, as has Los Llanos on the sunny west , over the mountain and not so far away.
You can easily drive around in a day, stopping for lunch and dinner, not forgetting of course that most important meal of anyones day… breakfast.
Tourism? Oh yes tourism..mainly walking or senderismo if you prefer, as there are a whole network of trails and for the most part sign posted each with a story to tell.
If its kiss me quick karaoke...go to the neighbouring Tenerife, it may just be too quiet for you on La Isla Bonita.
But it will do for me.
Bon voyage...
