Oh I do like to be beside the seaside!

On the weekend we decided not to visit any major tourist places as we are not keen on crowds. So it was decided to spend the next two days relaxing and exploring along the beach-front. This also included visiting the shopping complexes again and finding new areas to sit and watch the world go by.

Our beach walk took us to the west of Maspalomas beyond the lighthouse and the first set of shops that we had been through before. This time we took photos during our walk and the first one (left) is of one of the shopping areas with "garden" in front of it.

Further along the walkway we came across a hotel complex which we thought was pretty larney! So took a photo of that too (right). We thought about going into the complex but signs insisted that the area was for guests only... no curious tourists! We initially thought the building in the background was a place of worship but later discovered that it was a hotel! Kept thinking of Sun City in South Africa when walking passed this complex, had a similar feel to it.

Not much else happened on the weekend other than relaxing, walking, sitting on the beach, people watching and relaxing (oh, said that!). I think we were preparing ourselves of the next two days (Monday and Tuesday)... without realizing it...
