One Week in Gran Canaria

From zero to 26c in 4 hours. Marvellous holiday at the Riu Vistamar Hotel, Amadores, Gran Canaria. Perched on the top of a cliff overlooking Amadores beach which was a 20 minute walk away and 25 minutes to Puerto Rico beach down the steps. We had a all inclusive deal and found it hard to spend our money. Room good except noise pollution all around. Good food and great views. Courtesy bus down to Amadores beach every half hour, there & back. Europa Centre just 10 minutes away and our old favourite bar the Biblos. Wonderful weather for January. We will be in the Canaries again this time next year.
