Day 3 (January 22)

Early in the morning, the least sleepy half of the team went to witness horison near 📍 Monumento de la Antorcha Olímpica México 1968. Distant mountains were showing out of the haze, the sun was gaining power.

After breakfast, we drove around the island in a rented minibus.

There are beautiful mountain views at 📍Mirador del Morro de Agando and 📍Mirador de Tajaqué.

Next we drove to 📍Mirador de Abrante, a picturesque place with red soil.

It was getting close to lunchtime, and we drove to the nearest town. There we split up, the main part of the team went for a walk to the restaurant, and the captain and the driving member of the team went to get a patch for the hole in the sail.

The restaurant pleased with local fish and Canarian potatoes (boiled with salt crust), soon Dima and Alexey arrived.

It was already approaching evening, but we still decided to drive to 📍Playa de las Salinas. It wasn't for nothing, we made it in time for sunset. The beach is rocky, very beautiful with waves crashing on the rocks in the setting sun. It reminded me of 📍Benijo beach in Tenerife.

We returned to the marina in the late evening, had dinner and started taping up the damaged sail.
