SUMMER BREAK

...just in case you're wondering:

summer has been perfect on La Gomera so far this year. Not too hot and just beautiful.

So this is a good time to take a break and go in search of imperfection. 

I'm back in Ireland for the time being with the promise that I'll report anything important that might happen on La Gomera on this blog - if and when it happens. 
UPDATE 15-08-12:
Nothing of any great importance to report - summer continues quietly and La Gomera rests. Ireland is having a VERY busy tourist season this summer, by the way.

Meanwhile you can meet me at one of the places below:

Pedestrianisation of Vueltas a step closer to reality

The long overdue revamp of the harbour town of Vueltas in Valle Gran Rey on La Gomera is to go ahead finally with some modifications to the original plans. 

The work to be carried out will cost just over 600.000 Euros and an official announcement has been published inviting contractors to tender for the job. The duration of the construction phase is set at eight months and the work is to be carried out in three distinct phases to minimise traffic disruption. It is expected that work will begin later this summer.
