Don't forget it's the Lions Christmas Fair in Las Galletas tomorrow - Not sure what time probably about 10 or 11 till around 1-2 I think....

They always have a great tombola, and Father Christmas (with a real beard!) will be there too.

See you there around midday?

It's on the Rambla I believe (just off the sea front)

We took our grandson Tyler James to see Father Christmas at the fair today (saw a few forum members too )

Have to say for a 7 month old baby, he was brilliant, did all the smiles and poses that he should have (will post pic) didn't get freaked at a guy dressed in red with white hair and beard (all his own!) Sat on his lap!!!!

Yes I know it's not allowed in the UK, but this particular SC is also a good friend of ours, and it's got to be done!! (silly bloody rule anyhow imo) and we won a big green dinosaur on the tombola too!

Lovely morning all in all

Well as a resident here for 11 years I can say that some years, you could have a picnic on the beach and go swimming in the sea. Other years you couldn't

But either way it's never as cold as the UK on Christmas day

Where are the fireworks New years eve?
Last year I HAD THE BEST NEW YEAR IN MY LIFE! Our Daughter and Son in Law joined us............. We had a lovely meal cooked by our chief cook ..Son in law John ....excellent ...followed by a trip to the roof at midnight to watch 360degrees fireworks displays from all the towns and villages surrrounding us
It was the most spectacular display...................I would like to catch that moment again!

Same in Tenerife. We can see all the west coast fireworks from up here, and over at La Gomera as well, and consistently the best for me recently have been Alcalá's. From Callao Salvaje though, it might be worth popping across to Playa Paraiso because their displays have always been pretty good too.

Fireworks? Just get up a little hight on the mountain and you will see loads from everywhere!

If you want to actually be showered in "bits", then get down to Los Cristianos harbour. But don't expect a taxi after unless it's booked!
