Mount Teide - sci fi landscape

 We spent the afternoon climbing to the highest peak in Spain.  Half way up, past the treeline and the landscape turns into an eerie sci-fi  vista. Absolutely stunning, Pretty chilly up there too, as it's so high above sea level.

I think a summer break from travels is needed now... Signing off until the next epic trip (all will be revealed when I next see you). Rob
