Last day in Playa de la Arena, Tenerife

So - up early, showered, finished the packing and zoomed down to the pool (before 9am) so Flyingpops could have one last swim (her Dad splashed around in there too), we walked down to take one last look at the beach (once everyone was dry), and tried to find somewhere new for breakfast, and (as is typical for the last day of the holiday) we found an absolutely fantastic place up the stairs above the "Highland Paddy" (turn left at the top, can't miss it) who put on this little marvel (the "large") -
Full English Breakfast
- for me, did Flyingpops a nice veggie breakfast, and cooked Tom a bacon omelette (which wasn't on the menu) with no objections at all...After breakfast we did a last few bits of essential shopping (Mojo sauce, banana liquor etc.) -
Apartment, Canarian goodies... ;)
- then, with a few minutes left to spare we found a way up onto the roof of the apartments, so here you can see all the banana plantations out the back of the resort -
Banana Plantations
- the coach journey was really painless (last day of the holiday and they decide to re-open the road - double typical!) and we were among the first people in the queue for check in, had a drink, did a bit more shopping and then flew back, great flight, tail wind this time so landed early and Flyingpop's uncle Al picked us up at the airport right on time...and that was it!

Roll on Cornwall in the summer... ;)
