I've recently returned from a lovely 10 day break in Tenerife, and after unpacking, washing, food shopping etc, it's now back to reality. Craft Fair preparations are ongoing, including arranging a tombola stall, distributing posters, contacting more of the local media, trying to get more prizes for the competitions - my powers of persuasion are really being put to the test now!
However, I just wanted to share some samples of my holiday with you - I've just uploaded 186 photos to my PC, but you'll be pleased to know that I will only be showing you a small selection for now! I tend to take far more photos that I need, as I can't help but view everything as a potential subject for a future painting!
Holidays are great, and I really enjoy them no matter how short or wherever I go, but it's always nice to be back home. Our cats are always looked after by our neighbour, who comes in twice daily to feed them and generally make a fuss over them, yet it's nice that they seem pleased to see us on our return - well, at least one of them is!

Isn't this tree so much like a hand? |

This sign was on the wall leading to our room - it made us laugh every time we walked past it! |
|
Just a shopping centre, but I loved the decor and style so much! |

Beautiful leaves of a palm tree in the evening. |

Orca at Loro Parque being treated after a performance. Beautiful creatures. |

Typical palm tree against a perfect blue sky. |

I loved this display of the Bird of Paradise plants in the foyer of our hotel. |
