• Tenerife Canary Islands Day 1

    June 6, 2025 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    Today we woke up at 6:30am to fly to Tenerife in the Canary Islands. We got to the airport around 7:30 and dropped our shared suitcase off and Laura, Sandra, and I went through security. I was dying for a flavored coffee or chai tea and I tried 5 coffee shops and no one had it. I eventually caved and got some chocolate powder and added it to an iced coffee and it was alright, but it did its job. Gabriel and Nacho eventually arrived and met with us. Our flight was slightly delayed, but eventually we got to board the flight. We sat there for awhile and then 2 girls wanted to leave after the door was shut so we had to wait longer. But it didn’t turn out to be a final destination moment so it was okay.

    The plane eventually took off and the 3 hour flight began. I was in a middle seat and I slept maybe 30 minutes so I just went through photos and played games. We eventually landed around 1:30pm and then went on a hunt for a rental car that is automatic since I can’t drive manual. We weren’t able to get a car though because Laura is only 19 and has only been driving for 9 months. I could drive but I would be the only one driving so we said F it and got a 2 hour bus to the south to our accommodation.

    We eventually arrived and on the walk up we decided to get Burger King before walking to our accommodation. After we checked in and it is a beautiful stay with a perfect sunset view on the patio. After a little we went to the grocery story to get food and then went back to shower and eat pizza. We were going to go out and party but we were all tired so we decided to stay in and get some sleep for the night.
