As the sun sets into the sea over the great peak of El Tiede, it is time to say goodbye to the sub-tropical paradise of Tenerife, spelled backwards efirenet, as we listen to the dulcet tones of Spike Jones and his Wacky Wakkians... sorry I drifted off a bit there but it is time to say good bye to Tenerife from the Godd Blog FFF. I've just about exhausted the photos that I brought with me to Tenerife and it's time to return to the more mundane worlds of reality.
let's just throw out there the final few remaining photos of the cactus park in Puerto de la Cruz ( i really do need to talk more about cacti - they were the first collection of plants I ever made as a teenager) but that is for another blog.
of the streets in Puerto de la Cruz - bananas - definitely need a blog about bananas esp. in Fiji - Sigatoka disease and the like
Flowers and religion - surely not another post about being closer to god in a garden etc...
a stupid prejudice I have against grafted plants - even though every rose we have in the garden is a grafted plant - but willows? Don't seem right....
And the very final one for now from Tenerife is another textural photo - the texture of a palm tree with bark like dripping wax as if it had been used as a giant natural candlestick...
Thank you for joining on this journey to 2007 and business as usual will be resumed soon (2 weeks today I'll be walking back to happiness across the tarmac at Aberdeen - 2 weeks almost to the hour).
Y'all come back now...
