Tenerife - October 2006

My twin brother Ross and I took another trip together in 2006 - this time to the volcanic island of Tenerife.

Ross undertook some scuba diving, but a rather severe bout of sea sickness (we did have some fairly stormy weather that week) put paid to my diving.

Nonetheless, we braved the bad weather and some fairly miserable colds (both Ross and I were suffering) and we enjoyed our trip. Mount Teide (pictured below) was among our stops, although the altitude had a rather dramatic effect on my hearing in as much as I almost completely lost my hearing on the way back down the mountain!

We also took a trip to Loro Park top see the dolphins and killer whales and enjoyed the spectacular coastline, made all the more dramatic by the stormy waves battering the rocks.
