Bruce and I are finally getting out of bed and it’s 11:30 in the morning. I don’t know what is up with this sleepiness. The bed is so comfy and the gentle rocking of the boat has been great for my sleeping.
Back to yesterday, we finally arrived at the pyramids after a beautiful scenic drive.
At first it seemed odd that the pyramids were in the middle of a town. However, once they had been discovered the pyramids then became a protected park.
Thor Heyerdahl, a Norwegian researcher, opened the park. He spent his life working on the theory that there were contacts between ancient civilizations across continents using small, primitive water craft. The designs of the pyramids are very similar to those found in Mexico, Guatamala and even the oldest pyramid in Egypt. It was a very educational and informative visit.
On our way back to the ship I photographed some beautiful flowers.
The entrance to the port looks very similar to the opera house in Sydney, Australia.
On our return, Bruce and I grabbed a quick lunch and headed to the gym.
After a good workout and some relaxation time, we went to our veranda to wave goodbye to Tenerife.
Late afternoon we had coffee with friends, then dinner with two charming couples from Virginia and Maryland and than a really great show.
We loved the Canary Islands and I could see myself coming back to spend a little more time.
