As promised in 2007 we went to the Canary Islands again. This holiday however got a little delayed due to moving into and furnishing our new home. That’s why our “summer” holidays couldn’t start before Christmas 2008. This travelogue however is only short and mainly for providing links to the photo gallery. We weren’t that keen on seeing that much that yields an interesting story, and I wasn’t that much into serious photography. Therefore, I didn’t go to the desert in the early morning or late evening, although I originally had planned to. We just enjoyed to relax, although the weather wasn’t that warm most of the time. And after all, Fuerteventura’s landscape doesn’t come up to the variety of Tenerife.
Saturday, December 27th
We had successfully finished the usual Christmas visiting marathon, checked in our luggage the evening before and stayed in a frugal hotel in Vienna overnight. Our flight went at 8.00am. After landing in Fuerteventura’s capital Puerto del Rosario we got our car and drove to our hotel in Corralejo in the north-east of the island; we had sunny 23°C. We had a snack at a beach bar and walked through the town until we had dinner in a neat restaurant close to the sea and the harbor.
