Day 1 - Adjusting to beach life

Wow. Flying is rough. We spent 28 1/2 hours in airports and planes. That doesn't include driving to the airport in Eugene and the time driving from the airport in Las Palmas to the hotel.

Needless to say, we are just trying to adjust and rest.

We had a light breakfast of frosted flakes and oj in the hotel. The fresh kiwi and melon is very tasty here. The view from the breakfast table is fantastic. Our room has the same view (pic on right here), only higher up.

We have decided to take it easy today. After breakfast, we walked the walkway along the beach. The plants here are amazing. Aloe, palm, cactus, and bright colored flowers. There are little striped huts that hold all the blue beach chairs along the way. There are also multiple life guards sitting around watching the water. It is very quiet here, calm. No sand or water yet, maybe tomorrow.

We are resting (and obviously blogging) right now. We will find a quiet dinner later. Maybe at 'The Laughing Pig.'
