The next day, we already had a SUBE card, charged and ready to go at the public transport. The line D took us from the Palermo district into the centre. When we resurfaced, we were at the Obelisk monument in the Plaza de la República. The reinforced concrete structure was erected in 1936 to commemorate the quadricentennial of […]

The day we arrived was Day 0. We were exhausted from the long flight where we had slept little and the time difference got us too. We managed a walk through the area where we will live during the next weeks and discovered the Botanical Garden close by, but soon it was time for a

As you are not allowed to leave anything valuable, any medicaments, any kind of food including spices, any batteries, no electronic devices in the car, we had a lot to pack and ended up with 5 bags. Of course there were things we could hide somewhere in the car, but we didn’t want to risk

In Belgium, we had chosen Waterloo as our first touristic stop. Most of us know about the important battle which has taken place near Waterloo, but not everybody knows where it lies (we didn’t). The battle of Waterloo marked the final defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte, who was beaten by the British and Allied forces under

Our port of departure is Antwerp, but as we have enough time, we can enjoy the route to get there. We crossed Switzerland in 2 days, visiting the famous Rhine Falls, which at 23 metres high and 150 metres wide, are among the most impressive in Europe. Even here, we suppose the amount of water

From Huelva, where we had arrived from Gran Canaria, we didn’t rush home, but made some lovely stops on our route. In Spain, we visited Osuna where we watched the preparation for the Easter processions. In Antequera, we went to one of our favourite restaurants: Arte de Cozina, always a special treat! Next, we drove
We went for our last lunch on the Canary Island, thinking back to all the great experiences we had on all the islands. We hadn’t expected to be so mesmerized by every island, and we are happy we had come here and hope we will be able to visit the Canary Islands again. The next

Along the west coast of Fuerteventura we found another lookout with a monument we loved. Don’t they look as if they are walking on clouds? Next we came past a beautiful windmill, once one of many, this is a very well renovated example and a reminder of the past. We followed the Barranco de los
From Costa Calma, we crossed the island to La Pared, where we admired the breakers at the coast. When we left La Pared to the north, we were driving on a scenic route, just that we didn’t see much of it, as heavy rain was passing over the island at that time. But it didn’t
