When the travel bug hits...

Tuesday, January 08, 2008


I'm in need of a holiday. One that will leave a charming impression and simply take my breath away. One of my cousins is very well travelled, having flown to most parts of the world. When I asked for her opinion, she recommended that I visit Gran Canaria, one of many islands in Canary Islands. I've never heard of this place but she assured me that it's beautiful with lots to do. She promised to help me find affordable air tickets and suggested some nice Gran Canaria Hotels to stay at too.

Whilst there, we could visit parks, jungles and ravines to appreciate their natural beauty in the day time and walk along beaches at night. There are more islands nearby with a lot more to offer. So once we're done here, we could easily fly into another island. There'll be a lighthouse to visit (I've never been to one!) and I'm keen to experience the night life there too seeing that there are a couple of bars we could visit.


It looks like my whole travel plan, itinerary and accommodation are drawn up by my cousin. In her enthusiasm, she's keen to book us on a couple of islands within Canary Islands itself. I'm not complaining because I'm hopeless at logistics and hate planning. So I will entrust my super-organised cousin to help me find available flights and rooms in Tenerife Hotels, Playa Del Ingles Hotels and Playa de las Americas Hotels.
