A trip down town.

Wednesday saw us take the plunge and walk along the sea front to Puerto del Carmen itself.

The forecast suggested it would be the last day when there would be any cloud cover, with the remaining days of our stay set to be full sun only.

It's quite a long walk but we're always happy to "get our steps in" so off we went.  The biggest surprise was to see that the Avenida de las Playas has been re-formatted into a one way route for much of the best bits of it with an extended walkway and a separate lane for cyclists and eScooters.

It was great to see some of our old haunts and the way in which the tourist environment in this area continues to undergo improvements at the expense of vehicle traffic.

The highlight of our day was lunch at one of our most favourite watering holes - the Antica Trattoria de Verona.  The only small fly in the ointment for yours truly is that swordfish is now off the menu, but their Pizza Napoletana is still something else!
