After our trip to La Gomera got canceled last year, I was really looking forward to this year's trip. We planned to stay in Valle Gran Rey for six weeks. Six weeks in January / Febuary - a real and truly sought-after escape from the weather in Hamburg during this time.
This time we booked a nice flat in La Puntilla. From the balcony we could see the mountain on the left side
and to the right side, we overlooked the street with its shops and palm trees. Whereas, in the front of us, there was quite a big field of bananas and other fruit trees.
There always was a bar at the end or half-way through a tour. One of our favorite was Bar Victoria in El Cercado. His pan con tomate y jamon was a real highlight for us.
And after such a long hike, we usually stayed in Valle Gran Ray the day after, where it was particularly crowded of tourists this year.
We were bathing, reading, sketching and just hanging around and planning our hike for the next day.
Adios y hasta el proximo año.
