Gran Canaria – What to See
A continent in miniature – that's how they refer to the Canary Island of Gran Canaria. Here you'll find a wealth of entertainment: excellent beaches with golden sand, stunning natural landscapes, and numerous theme parks for a fun family vacation. Gran Canaria's calling card is the mini-desert of Maspalomas, located in the south of the island.
Canary Islands

Recently, my family and I decided to take a walk around the campus of the University of La Laguna. We were particularly impressed by the Faculty of Fine Arts, Bellas Artes. It looks very similar to the new Apple office in Silicon Valley.

El Sauzal Coast – walks along the ocean
I'm talking about an extraordinary place for a peaceful walk along the ocean. The path is quite suitable for strollers, but at times you'll have to carry them over steps and pull them uphill. But it's worth it.
Knight’s Castle of San Miguel in Tenerife
The Canary Islanders came up with an interesting entertainment - a knights' tournament in a castle. It's a quite decent show, if you don't take it too seriously and demandingly. I recommend it for a family visit: neither adults nor children will be bored!
The Typical Barraquito Coffee Drink in Tenerife
Barraquito is a sweet coffee drink that is loved in the Canary Islands for being served in layers, thanks to the different densities of its ingredients. It all starts with condensed milk, then a layer of liqueur (most often Licor 43, consisting of 43 spices, or Tia Maria - a Jamaican coffee liqueur with a vanilla accent), then espresso coffee, and topped with whipped milk. The drink is served in a medium or tall glass, garnished with cinnamon and lemon or lime zest. And, of course, there is also a non-alcoholic version of barraquito.
