Ghost Town

My last travel series, which took almost a year to present to you, wore me down a bit. And since that trip, we’ve done even more extensive traveling — Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, India, Prague, back to Cape Town, another cruise up the west coast of Africa and to Saint Helena, and a return to Luxor. Those destinations were over two months-long trips, and I’ll be presenting those to you in the future. As for now, I need a break. So, for the next five weeks I’m going to ...

La Concepción

This week’s Fun Photo Friday not only concludes our journey to Tenerife, but also that six-week long journey I’ve been presenting to you for the better part of the last year. I hope you’ve enjoyed the many sights ranging from Romania, to Egypt, to Africa.

But before I get to those, I may have ...

Iglesia de la Concepción (Church of the Immaculate Conception)

Time for a European-style pasty break, and Ursula found us a wonderful little stop. We were accompanied on this little excursion by my bridge partner aboard NCL Dawn, so we had a three-way share of delights. If you’re going to pin me down as to the particular pastry shop, I’ll tell you that I believe it was Café Palmelita (Google rating 4.2 out of 6,117 reviews). I’ll begin by showing you the display case of goodies that awaited ...

Train to San Cristóbal de La Laguna

Are you tired yet of Santa Cruz de Tenerife? Well, then, let’s get moving. Time to hop a train and head west for a short trip to San Cristóbal de La Laguna. This charming little town features quaint, quiet streets with lots of color. Ursula and I have been here before. Indeed, I should you this destination in Transatlantic 2022 — Tenerife; Arriving San Cristóbal de La Laguna. And today you get to see it again. But this time we’re going to focus on the stre...
