Los Gigantes - Day 3

On the last day, I slept in and had breakfast on the harbor front. The weather wasn't as good Sunday, but as I was going to be spending most of the day traveling back to La Laguna, I didn't mind. Plus I got to see the weirdest rainbow.
Rainbow over Los Gigantos

The rainbow seem to sink into the sea. 


I thought It was maybe going behind the horizon. But no, it really did sink into the ocean. (None of the photos are touched.)

In front over some of the cliffs

No photo shop involved
Because of the cliffs the beach doesn't get the sun until early afternoon so the beach was practically empty. And I had it to myself for about an hour before having to head home.
Relaxing

The trip back was long (~4hrs) thanks to bus connections and one bus just never showing up. I really need to remember that a Spanish timetable is more a suggestion of times of when the bus might show up. The odds of those times being correct vary and depend on the bus driver and whether he cares or not. (Usually not.) I just wish they wouldn't sort out the change/cash while driving. On mountain roads. It does make me nervous.
The weather got worse the further east we travelled until we got to Santa Cruz where it was raining!
:( The weather is getting colder though still a lot better than either Blacksburg or the UK so I can't complain too much. I was told that when it gets colder the cockroaches go away. Not in Roachville apparently given the one that freaked me out in the bathroom last night. Big one too. There are some advantages of living in a cold country.
