Advantages: Stunning attraction beautifully designed and a pleasure to see Disadvantages: No good for those with walking difficulties
Jameosdel Agua is well worth a visit. Situated in the north of lanzarote this stunning attraction can be reached by hiring a car or going on a North or full island tour. Designed by Ceaser Manrique (a famous artist/architect from Lanzarote) from a collapsed lava tunnel, Jameos delAgua is an amazing site to behold. As you descend the first set of stairs into a bar area you will already be in awe of the place. On the next level down you will find an undergound lake boasting tiny blind white albino crabs that are usually found many miles below sea level. As you skirt this lake the sun shines in through gaps in the lava and creates a magical atmosphere. You can then ascend the steps on the other side into what can only be described as James Bond type setting. Here is a beautiful swimming pool set into stunning gardens and designed ...
Advantages: Friendly town with lots to do, a lovely holiday. Disadvantages: If you steer clear of the 'English Bars' there are none
COSTA DEL SOL
Benalmadea Costa,
I'm afraid I was always a bit of a 'travel snob' regarding the Costa del Sol. I envisaged the types of scene in TV's Benadorm, a type of Blackpool with sun.
As members of a vacation club ( it was then Sunterra now Diamon Resorts) we had the opportunity for a weeks break for relatively few points at the Sahara Sunset in Benalmadea Costa, as we could get Easy Jet airfairs to Malaga for a very low price we decided to try it.
We have been three times more since then - so needless to say I was not disappointed.
Benalmadena is only 15 kilometers from Malaga Airport, car hire is easily obtainable but it is only 25 euros for a taxi from the airport and there are plenty of excursions and good public transport available in the resort. It is set on the Costa del Sol between ...
Advantages: Orange taste is nice. Disadvantages: Combination of flavours doesn't work. Poor quality chocolate and lack of smell.
Wandering round my local discount shop as I tend do in the day before paydays bout of poverty I come across the Kit Kat Seville Edition. I have never been a big fan of Nestle chocolate and tend to find it all a little bit sickly sweet but the Kit Kat Seville edition promised, "An explosion of flavour in every bite". A heady claim methinks but a picture of oranges and the inside of a chocolate covered wafer oozing with caramelised orange swayed me (that and the fact it was twenty pence rather than thirty-five).
Wrapped it looks like an orange Kit Kat Chunky and is around the same size. As I peel open the wrapper I reveal a slab of chocolate that looks precisely like a Kit Kat Chunky, thick and brick like but generously sized. I am disappointed at a complete lack of smell. Considering the claims of flavour explosions I was ...
