La Palma

One of the Canary Islands smallest islands, La Palma welcomed us this morning with warm rain, which wasn't entirely unpleasant.

This mini matador was raising money for his school trip and would twirl his cape for a mere 50 cents.

Back on board this evening, little bit rock and roll, plenty of queasy people and B very seasick, missing meeting Captain Panopoulous who is a handsome devil if ever there was one. I can't wait to see the cheesy photograph of me and B's parents hamming it up with him. I tell you, any opportunity to make money and T.......'s will grab it with both hands.

I repaired to reception for medication, fingers crossed for a peaceful evening. Apparently you shouldn't drink water when seasick but nibble on dry crackers and green apple. Time to raid the buffet......
