Gran Canaria Holiday

We've just returned from what was a fabulous break in Gran Canaria; our first family holiday in a long time! Work commitments had made it nigh impossible to find time on our diary for a decent holiday so we booked 9 months in advance just to keep a week clear.

We wanted to start off as relaxed as possible so decided to go up to Gatwick a day early and booked into the Hilton Hotel which is on site. After a relaxing meal, we were able to get a good night's sleep and avoid a 3am start the next day!

After a 4 hour flight we arrived at the Hotel Rui Vistamar on the south side of the island,

This had come highly recommended and i have to say, that it excelled in every department as an all-inclusive hotel were you were able to take your brain out, relax and enjoy a week of superb weather and entertainment.

The week was boosted by making some new friends and spending some quality time with the gang.

The entertainment team were superb and great fun, and in particular, Lars, Maxine, Elena and Erik were brilliant. The all important food and drinks didn't disappoint either.

The week went far too quickly but it was great to see Baggins again who had been on holiday himself with his best friends Merlin and Bella.

Here a few images from the week, all taken on my Canon G10 which proved itself superb for the job.
