I wondered where you'd been all this time Sheilar. I've never been to Lanzarote . You look like you've got a good tan. Glad you enjoyed yourself. I bet looking in that volcano was scary!

Great pictures Sheila, glad you had a lovely holiday.

WOW, fantastic pics Sheila!!!

Lovely pics, I really like Barcelo hotels x looks like you had a fab holiday x

Cheered me up a treat lovely blog glad you had a good holiday :o))

I'm glad you had a nice holiday. I enjoyed seeing the cacti. I've got that one the size of a football. It's Ferocactus pilosus .... I bet you really wanted to know that lol not ... but mine is only the size of an orange at the moment ;o)

Thank you all so much for your nice comments.
The donkey just stood there and let me pet him - he was lovely. It's not a good shot of his mate, the dog, but apparently he'd just been shorn for the summer and the only really big bit of fur was the clump left on his tail!
We chased that bird (whatever type it was) off the main path into the bushes as there are a lot of feral cats around and we didn't want it to get attacked. It looked like it was an old injury and didn't seem impeded by it.
The volcano was scary - especially going up the roads to it with a sheer drop seen through the window. The scenery was like being on another planet (not that I've ever been on one but what I would imagine it to be like).
When I saw all the big cactus, I immediately thought of Hywel!! - and the flowers on them were magnificent.

Nice hols Sheilar, great pics.
What is that building in pic 8? Looks like something out of a James Bond film.

Willi - it's a cafe/restaurant, visitors centre and also where they cook food on heat from the active volcanic ground. While we were there, there were chicken portions being cooked over the fire pit on a massive grill type thingy. I agree, it does look like something from a James Bond film!! lol

Oooh Errr, I'd much rather believe it is a Top Secret hideaway, with some fat bloke sitting there stroking his cat, LOL.

OK Willi - it's a top secret hideaway for 007 and his gang but don't let anyone else know! lol

OK, Mums the word ;-)
Lucky you wern't shot taking photos, might of thought you were a spy!

Lol Willi ;-))

Enjoyed your holiday Pics, at least you had some sunshine, never seen so many camels in my life!! great photos S.

My best friend is going to lanzarote next week Sheilar, im going to ask her to get some pics of the great cactai over there now! wow looks amazing, duno about the camels tho lol :-))

Missed this - looks amazing. Now I can see why people go to Lanzarote! Lovely donkey, lol (and glad to have an explanation of what I thought was a flying saucer :))

So sorry for missing this Sheilar !! Again lovely photos - love the bird in there - great views - bet Hywel will like those Cactus
