Putting plan C into operation

Sociable 5km run with Lanza Road Runners at 9am, followed by a coffee. After a shower, we proceeded to:

Plan A - bus to Playa Blanca. Bus was 40 mins late and so full we couldn’t board. Move to

Plan B - bus to Arrecife for a late lunch. When it eventually arrived, bus was too full so we couldn’t board. Move to

Plan C - walk to Puerta del Carmen, finding the first decent restaurant, which was actually excellent. Fish soup and a filling salad. Walked across a strand that bisected the bay, although some waves were managing to breach it. Cycled along the coast to Arrecife, and then finished with a dip in the pool.

We are trying to suspend judgment about the bus service here - the timetables seem to be a work of fiction and electronic displays showing next buses are hopelessly misleading.Leggi altro
