The Art of Tenerife, Canary Islands

Dear travel diary;

I've spent a fair amount of time walking around the small island of Tenerife.  I have discovered some interesting things here, but the most impressive is the art and statues that litter the island.  The big face statue....that is a little creepy, but the rest are nice.

The Black Pyramids of Guimar in Tenerife, Canary Islands

Dear travel diary;

After some wandering around the small island of Tenerife, I have discovered the Black Pyramids of Guimar.  These small pyramids are made out of volcanic rock around the 19th century (there is some debate about when they were really made and even why).  For a pyramid, they aren't too tall, even to a small garden gnome.

Tenerife, Canary Islands

Dear travel diary;

Today I find myself climbing the mountain trails of little island of Tenerife, in the Canary Islands.  This little Spanish island is on big volcanic mountain, covered by trees.  It's like one great big garden!  It has taken me all day to climb the mountain but the view is worth it.  Especially the one mountain peak that looks like a boob!  You got to love this island!
