So first things first! Happy St Georges Day… So its 4:15 in the afternoon, its my 27th Birthday and it has to be the hottest day we have had so far, so I am quite happy that we have had another day of chilling out in our room, lazing in the sun listening to music, and reading books etc.… It has just this moment become to hot for me, (wuss) so I have retreated inside to update the travel blog for Saturday & Sunday… Saturday was, like today, a day where Maddy and myself just chilled out and didn’t do a great deal, which has been nice, punctuating the days out with a few days of lazing around… Sunday morning we walked down to the Los Cristianos Sunday market, where pretty much, every stall is trying ... read more

So as I said in the last blog, Maddy wanted to do the update for this one as she was so excited about going, so read on and enjoy... Okay, so the alarm goes off at 7.15 and we snooze it a couple of times, you would have though that after my excitement the previous day and night that I would be up and ready to go out the door!! Once we are up, Sam realized what the time was and decided that we had no time for breakfast, this made me sad as I didn’t want to become hungry and grumpy. We waited at reception for our 8.40 pick up which didn’t happen until 9. It took about an hour and 15 mins to get to Loro Parque in our fully air-conditioned (cold) coach. The ... read more

So day two of mine and Maddy’s honeymoon, I would say another quiet chilled out day, which considering the visit to Loro park tomorrow is a good think, I have never seen Maddy so excited about a day out... but you will be able to read all about that adventure tomorrow evening... After breakfast, Maddy and I just chilled in our room and out on the terrace sunning ourselves, Maddy snoozed while I read more of George R R Martins epic “ A Song if Ice and Fire” saga, for those interested I am reading book 5 “ a Feast for Crows”, until lunch time, which starts at 1pm for the buffet here, so we headed down to have a quick bite, I also took some time to sort a few things out, using the hotels ... read more

So here I am, tethered to my iPhone's 3G connection at 11:50pm (thankfully the time in tenerife is the same as back home in the UK) deciding what to right in a travel, blog, I think I may already be nearing my 50mb limit, so I may have to make a mosey to receptiom over the next few days to make these uploads, the joy of modern technology :) We arrived at Tenerife's south airport yesterday afternoon and were comfortably in our room by 3:30ish... Yesterday was a long one for both me and Maddy, considering we had been awake since the early hours of the morning, the 4:30 alarm to get ourselves to Bristol was not to welcome... We checked-in, in the amazing looking reception of the Marylanza and once we were in the room, ... read more
