I met the Bard of Ely on La Palma!

MIKE BURN

And he really has a green beard! HAHAHAHA

While I was holidaying with my family on the Canary Island of La Palma, the Bard came over from neighbouring island Tenerife where he lives since last year, for a one day visit.

A nice, positive and eloquent person, I can tell and the day went by too fast.

Here's a pic of him I took with his camera:

...and here's a pic of me -oh well HAHAHA- playing his acoustic guitar

While talking too much and forgetting to take more pictures, I can offer some more pics I took while enjoying the nature of La Palma again:

Well, you were not on the Canary Islands...

...I did hope to see you again

However... I did my best to 'promote' La Palma to the Bard as good as possible! LOL The island was again a fabulous experience and source for recreation -especially the bath in the "Fuente Santa". I don't look necessarily alike but I feel now 10 years younger! LOLOL

I got your mail but didn't answer because I have to slowly keep up with certain things after my return. I will come back to you with some ideas regarding your inquiry

- just give me some time.

Raw nature like that can be so good for the soul...

My ticket says the place is called San Agustin.

I've been to every other place on the Canary Islands more than twice. But I've never been to Gran Canaria. I think I will post some pics when I'm back.

Just found this thread so apologies, Mike, and everyone for my very late arrival!

Yes, I did love it on La Palma and a big THANKS to Mike for being a wonderful guide to the island!

I would like to live there but have just moved here to San Marcos!
