Canary Islands

hiiiiiii!!
Since, I had to yet again miss Easter with the family, I decided to have a little vaca of my own! The Irish and I headed to the Canary Islands!! We met one of Irish's friends there, so three made a party! ha.
There honestly isn't to much to report because we literally sat at the beach or pool pretty much all day/everyday! The pool was perfect and almost no one else used it, so if we wanted a break from the VERY crowded beach we could just go there and it was right outside of our bungalow. Or the beach was about a 4 min walk away. Both ideal!
We went for an entire week, so we decided a hotel room would be to crowded and decided to go with an awesome bungalow. It worked out great, we had all kinds of space and a kitchen, so we could save money and just cook at home.
Probably the most fun thing we did was ride camels! It was hilarious. It was kind of like riding a drunk horse because you just sway back and forth, back and forth. Pretty awesome.
Other than that we saw some really pretty beaches and the town of Las Palmas is really beautiful. It was a very, very awesome vacation. I got super super tan and ate lots of amazing seafood, does it get any better!?



Here's a few photos, the rest are on the photo website ;).

Looking out over the beach...The Irish's relationships with the camel...

My relationship with the camel...(the darn thing wouldn't stop peeing and pooing. it was nasty) ha, there's a hooters in the Canary Islands. ps. Hooters will forever remind me of our trip to San Diego ;).

Our sweet home for the week, notice the proximity to the pool! Its obvious an English speaker translated the rules, ha!! (click on the pic to make it bigger)

This was probably one of the best things ever. The crossroads our bungalow was on is Spain and United States...uh could that be anymore ironic to my life!?
