February 2010
This Christmas we stayed home, though Karon was keen to get away to find some sun again. I suggested that we might be able to make it for a week or so early in the year. The snow and perpetual gloom of this winter spurred me on to do something about it and then a friend recommended La Palma in the Canary Islands having spent a week there just before Christmas. We stayed in one of the bigger hotels – probably too big for our taste, but once we had some wheels organised, set about exploring the island.
