Misc: The sand dunes

Since Fuerteventura is very much a desert island, there is an abundance of sand dunes. The sand is this incredibly fine, soft, clean stuff that feel so great between your toes. I guess there is a lot of four-wheeling and dune buggying that goes on in various places on the island. I just thought it was beautiful to see the stretches of rolling dunes that meet up with the ocean. Plus it made it very easy for me to pretend that I was actually in Africa on the Sahara desert.

Mr X and I played around on them for a bit one day. In some places the dunes have some pretty steep vertical drops so we would run and jump off of them.




If you are starting to notice that we are wearing the same thing in every picture, its because that's all we had. We originally hadn't planned on going to the Canary Islands so we didn't bring anything but winter clothes. We had bathing suits and our workout clothes substituted for beachwear just fine. Plus our apartment had a washing machine. More on the apartment tomorrow though...
