We hired a jeep and drove into the mountains at the centre of the island, where the air is cool and clear. This
shows some of the terraced farmland on the mountain slopes. |

Far from the madding crowd... Vanessa on our trip to the interior of the island. It was nice to discover that Gran
Canaria is not all beach resorts and tourists. |

One of the spectacular views from the mountain road, looking out over white houses in the valley below. Driving
on the right for the first time in ages while negotiating very tortuous mountain roads was interesting, to say the least! |

A mural covering the entire side of an apartment block, in Las Palmas, the capital city of Gran Canaria. |

Vanessa in one of the coffee shops at Faro2, a shopping complex near our apartment in Maspalomas. Here, she demonstrates
the effect of the wonderbra... |

On the winding road into the central mountains of the island, we passed these yellow houses which caught the sun as it
was setting. A hint of soft focus and they glow nicely... |
