Peak Of The Day Or "Teide Flypast"

Rather bumpy take off from Gatwick followed by numerous spells of turbulence en route to Aeropuerto Internacional Reina Sofía- thankfully the bar service on BA is free!

In my infinite wisdom I also managed to book a window seat with only a partial window view; blame this on the aircraft being ex-BMI and me never having the privilege to (yet) fly on it!

As we began our descent Mount Teide - the highest peak in the whole of Spain - appeared.

A wee visit in a cable car to visit this natural wonder lies ahead...
