A TRIP TO TENERIFE - Afterword

As I said up front, this trip affected me in some profound and life-changing ways. I found that I really enjoyed the mental stimulation of making myself understood in another language. The clear ocean air and the exercise I got from climbing up and down the hillside were definitely good for my body. The good natured friendliness of the local population and the abundance of beauty and wonder everywhere I looked were definitely good for my spirit. I can tell you right now, that there are many other places in the world I would like to visit, but I WILL return some day to Tenerife. Heck, I could even see myself being very happy living there. Hmmmmmmm ....

I hope to have a link to post here to a 15 minute video tour of the Tenerife. This video gives you a dialog-free documentary style view of the islands, backed with some of the lovely music that is produced on Tenerife. It is my hope that this video will give you a small sense of how this island enchanted me so.

This AVI video is compressed using the DIVX 5.2.1 codec. You can download the codec and a player here:
