[blog] What a dire place.

Discussion in 'UK Motorcycles' started by Paul Carmichael, Sep 29, 2009.

  1. Playa de las Americas - Tenerifraf.

    Makes Fuengirola and Torremolinos look like idylic unspoilt caribbean
    islands with hardly a Union flag in sight.

    Inland is lovely though, and a motorcyclists paradise. And the place was
    crawling with them.

    You'll all be waiting to see the pictures of me with a dolphin? Bear in
    mind the pictures are *of* me, therefore not taken *by* me. No genitals
    on display either.

    you know you've come to a bad place in life when you've started
    recycling Bear's lines...

  6. Heh. That thought occurred to me, too.

    It's the emotional toll of being redundant, useless, washed-up, not
    needed.

    I need a hug.

    That's very kind, but it's really... not helping.

  12. Go and eat at 'Meson Era Las Mozas' in Valle de San Lorenzo.

    C/ La Cabezada 26
    38626 Arona (Tenerife)
    Spain
    +34 922 765 597

    Book ahead.
    Eat inside, the covered court yard *may* be a little cool in the
    evening.

    You will be the only tourists there.

    The food is superb.

    It will make Playa de las Americas fade like a bad dream.

    Did you climb to the top of the mountain ?.

  14. Thanks. Bit late now though.
    The last 2 nights in the south, I slept on the balcony. And sweated.
    I ate a couple of times at a Spanish restaurant on the front. Food was
    lovely, and not a tourist in sight. Which of course equates to not a
    client in sight. Apart from us. We had "especialidades anti-crisis".
    Didn't pay anything like the prices on the menu.
    When I was there, PdlA was a nightmare - "una verdadera pesadilla". I
    just kept thinking about coming home.

  15. No. I drove to the crater, and there were monstrous queues for the lift
    to the top, and it was too hot to walk.

    Biggest resort on Canary island in complete shithole non-shocker.

    Did you not do a little research before booking? I've never been to
    Tenerife but I've been to Gran Canaria a few times and not once have I
    ended up in Playa del Ingles.

    I have just had a phone-call, followed by a rather odd meeting with the
    soon-to-be-ex-employer.

    I am now considerably fewer worried than I was... :^)
