Last night was the ‘Burning of the Sardine’ here in Los Cristianos and Elinor took the camera out to record the event. Here is a video clip, apologies for the quality, but I hope you will be able to see the action OK! According to the Arona website, the event is: … a grotesque funeral…

Entertainer in Tenerife
We had heard about this Leapy Lee character being in Tenerife at the moment and so decided to go and check him out on Thursday night. Like most people, (well those that remember his name), we could only think of one song, that’s right, ‘Little Arrows’ and so have to admit we were not sure…
Birthday Surprise
Well, after weeks of planning and trying to keep it quiet Elinor’s surprise for her 15th birthday worked a treat. Eli had hoped her eldest brother, Chris could visit from the UK for her birthday however he had explained that it would not be possible as he had recently visited and couldn’t get the time…
Reyes in Tenerife
Last night was the first time for a good few years that we have missed the procession for Reyes in Los Cristianos but to be honest neither Cathy or I were well enough to go and jostle with the crowds yesterday! I have seen a few photos already (courtesy of Daniel Cetrulo for Arona on…

4 x 4 Photo Shoot for Cancer Charity

Land and Sea Procession
The event was planned to start from the Parroquia Nuestra Señora Virgen del Carmen at 19:30hrs last night and wind its way through the streets of Los Cristianos – we are not sure if it did start on time because this year due to other commitments we only managed to join the proceedings at the…
Classic Car Exhibition
The Fiesta in Los Cristianos, in honour of La Virgen del Carmen has been running for a few days now and today we wandered down to Casa del Mar in Los Cristianos to have mooch around some of the fabulous Classic Cars that were being exhibited there. We took a load of photos but here…
