So, we are off to the Canary Islands, specifically to Gran Canaria. We are pleased to have got persuaded by Mark and Darek - our friends from Bydgoszcz to spend the New Year's Eve together inj the warmth of the Canary winter.
From Wikipedia: "The Island of Gran Canaria, with its surface of almost 1,600 km² is the third-largest and second-population of 802.247 inhabitants of the island of the archipelago. It enjoys the nick name of "a continent in miniature "due to its diversity of climate, geographical differences and diverse flora and fauna.
Although historians cannot agree, the majority of them believe that the original name of the island in the Guanche sounded Tamaran or Tamarant. Contemporarily, it is thought that the name came from from the Canary dog - can, however, according to the latest linguistic and historical research it is believed that it originates from the Canaria - the name of one of the tribes of Africa. "
But we are not going investigate the origin of the name of the island, and we will focus only on spending a nice time. Worse, we will not even play backpackers .... We'll play lazy tourists enjoying the charms of life!
