Funchal suburbs
Funchal suburbs within the „Banana line“. Looking behind the shiny front row buildings reveals different perspectives.
The yellow well aged building caught my attention.
L.E. Kayaking
Kayaking is life. Finally did a tour from Leipzig city harbour to lake Cospuden. The best way to explore nature. And to enjoy summer.
Hello Teide!
1200m above sea level. This is the highest point I reached on my bike trips on Gran Canaria this summer. High enough to catch a view over to Tenerife with Mt. Teide. (far in the back of the image)
And high enough to reach another climatic zone. It became green up there.
Imagine the fun riding it all back down to sea level.
Parque Nublo
This trip was from Maspalomas up to Parque Nublo. Roque Nublo almost marks the center of the island of Gran Canaria. As the island has 4 different climatic zones (sea level north and south, mountain area north and south), the goal was to go up to Nublo national park and see a different climatic zone.
The photo was taken on the way back along canyon walls, always the magnificient ocean view ahead.
Arco del Coronadero
What an awesome place to be. A short but steep trip uo to Arco del Coronadero. Another early morning start to climb uphill before the heat kicks in.
Vacation time!
Vacation time! Another bike ride in perfect conditions. Short 42km trip to the Ayagaures reservoirs. The short round trip to get used to the conditions on Gran Canaria.
Bike & Swim
Summer, finally! Sunset Bike&Swim yesterday. These are the days I am always waiting for.
Long time no kayaking
Kayaking the mediterranean! At least a bit.
Peace
Sky above, sand below, peace within. (and a drink in your hand. Cheers.)
