Here In am in beautiful Rome. I
love how in Europe all the buildings look beautiful. We
basically walked all around Rome on foot. It was really fun. We
came across a great farmer's market and enjoyed the Italian
oranges.
|
This is in front of the Roman ruins. Even in the
middle of winter Rome was full of light. |
An ancient Roman town. |
|
More Roman Ruins.
|
This is now Tenerife, Canary Islands, at the town market. We
lived off the papayas and bananas.
|
These are someone's banana trees in their
backyard. Canary Islands are famous for their little bananas.
|
A view of Tenerife's country side. There are so
many micro climates and biospheres. Overall canary Islands has
the best climate on earth. Always mild, even in winter time.
|
Now we're on the highest mountain in Spain called the Teide.
This is what you would call a steam vent and we are all warming
our hands on the sulfur coming out of the earth.
|
View from the mountain. I like being able to look out over the
white fluffy clouds. |
|
Snow on the mountain, and yes we took advantage and threw
snowballs at each other
|
This is at the bottom of the mountain. The red rock makes it
look like we're on another planet. I heard a few Sci Fi movies
have been filmed here for the very same reason. |
A date palm at the beach. The dates were a little dry but
still good.
|
Teresitas beach in Tenerife. This beach is perfect for
swimming and the sand was shipped in from the Sahara! I have a
lot of good memories here, especially swimming at night. |
|
A fruit stand at a black sand beach we went to. Take a look
at the mango, it's huge! |
This is the spot my parents met in Madrid, Spain. This is
where it all started!
