Sunday

 Woke to pouring rain and thunderstorms.













After breakfast the hotel's interior courtyard was flooded and we'd retreated upstairs to the solar room to catch up on emails and do some Potfest planning. By lunchtime the rain had more or less stopped and we set off up the hill at the back of Garachico on an old stone track to find the volcano that had destroyed the town in the 18th century.


















 Got as far as San Juan del Reparo before the weather closed in again, glimpsed the Garachico volcano,














and got really good views back to the town as we made our way back down. Have decided to base our next few days in Las Playas del Americas on the S.W.coast in the hope of better weather - and forays into the Teide National Park
