Lanzarote, 4-13 July 2012

Our 2012 Summer holiday was in Lanzarote, Spain, one of the Canary Islands, at the West of the Sahara desert. We stayed in Playa Blanca at the South of the island, in a holiday resort that had apartments in semi-detached houses, and several swimming pools. We rented a car the whole stay and it was convenient. Lanzarote is a beautiful island, very arid but with interesting vegetation, even some agriculture (vineyards). The landscapes were stunning, from the volcanoes to the beaches.

Black gravel & volcanoes
Pretty golden light as the sun was setting below the layer of clouds. Next to the road, a field of black gravel speckled with dry shrubs. Some hills in the background, ancient volcanoes.
