A view from the beach.
Camels waiting to take tourists on a trek.
The door to our apartment. (Only kidding!)
Demonstration of the heat under the ground at the Timanfaya National Park. Some straw was put in a hole a couple of metres below ground and it immediately ignited!
Looking into a volcano.
The lunar-like landscape of the solidified lava flows.
The green lagoon at El Golfo.
I believe the works above and below to be that of Cesar Manrique.
He was a locally born artist of Lanzarote whose work and influence can be seen all over the island. The pictures of these huge fish sculptures were taken in the hotel we were staying at.

Welcome Home Simone.
ReplyDeleteYours photos are very interesting, I have often wondered what Lanzarote was like as my sister and her boyfriend love this island.
It looks like you had a fab time and ventured a bit further than the beach or pool!
The lagoon must have been really interesting.

So glad you had a great time in Lanzarote Simone. I was beginning to wonder if you were up to something in your absence? There are some fantastic sights to be seen in The Canaries, with some areas really making you feel like you have stepped out onto another planet! I vaguely remember Cesar Manrique displays when we've visited the island in the past. It would be great to have a go at replicating similar, with shapes of bright coloured materials? x
