If you don’t know where Santa Cruz De Tenerife is, it’s one of the Canary Islands. Finally, today, it’s a bit warm and sunny, and we are enjoying coffee, smoothies, and omelets in an outdoor cafe. This light lunch was 10 Euros which included a bottle of water.
It was quite a walk from the ship. Perhaps a third mile. But it’s another charming European city.
Before we could stop for our coffee, we found the Iglesia de San Francisco.
In all these places we have visited in Europe, there are lots of hilly streets, so good walking shoes and maybe a walking stick are necessary. Since many streets, at least the side streets which are far more interesting, are brick or cobblestone, you need to watch your feet.
After our lunch, we found another church, Iglesia del Pillar.
This stained glass was interesting. What does that look like in the bottom left corner?
Time for a bathroom break. And another coffee. This time cappuccino.
We walked through Plaza Principe de Asturias which was a lovely park with a giant gazebo and many statues.
Outside the park, there were many buildings with statues one being a museum.
The other is the Circulo de Amistad which has a restaurant. We didn’t go inside.
My plantar fasciitis began to act up so we headed back to the ship so I could ice my foot. This damn foot is getting in the way of my making my daily step goal!
We had dinner with 3 other couples and it was very enjoyable. Then a production show which is always lively!
Now to bed so we can visit Las Palmas tomorrow!

Santa Cruz de Tenerife sounds like a charming stop — sun, cozy cafes, historic churches, and lovely streets! Sorry to hear about the plantar fasciitis acting up though. Hope your foot feels better soon and that Las Palmas brings more great moments!
