Veel zon, rustige ontspannen vakantie. Oude stad van Las Palmas is zeker een bezoek waard evenals het strand en zijn boulevard. Vergeet de markt niet in Puerto de Morgan.

nous nous sommes promenés principalement aux environs de la cathédrale que nous avons visité bien sûr. elle est immense et très belle. nous avons pris l ascenseur pour monter au sommet de la tour. vue exceptionnelle de toutes parts. nous avons visité aussi la "Casa de Colon". beau musée.

Me hubiese gustado escuchar mas sobre la historia de la isla, no solo anécdotas y personajes. La parte de Vegueta donde se cuentan los viajes a América se debería tener un poco más de cautela y neutralidad, la versión para escolares de “los españoles fueron a salvar a los nativos” puede sensibilizar a los participantes si son justamente de Sudamérica.
