A Visit to The North!

We decided at the last minute to have a drive up to the Mercedes Forest, Taganana and of course Terisetas Beach this afternoon.  It’s the first time that I have been that far North, although Cathy and Helen have been before.  Here are some of the photos that we took – hope you enjoy them,…

Tenerife Entertainment Awards 2011
