The last 5 days in Tenerife - Part 2
Relaxation again It was Saturday and I had decided to stay in bed a bit longer, so I just got up to put the "Do not disturb" sign at my front door in order to avoid that the cleaning lady drops in. As I was used to getting up at around 8 or 9 am, I couldn't sleep any...
