Anfi del Mar Resort, Gran Canaria Island, The Canaries, Spain
It doesn’t seem to rain much in the Canaries. The islands we have visited so far (Eastern Side Islands: La Graciosa, Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, and Tenerife Island), they look rocky or sandy. Many hotels and restaurants are all over on the islands. Development keeps going making more hotels and vacation properties. Thinking about the water supply for millions tourists, I believe water maker technology has helped the Canaries a lot: making water from ocean for daily use for about 14 million tourists per year.

PS: One day, while motoring, I practiced “Rescue at Sea Mission”. We threw a life jacket at sea as if a person is overboard. Proudly, by driving the boat in circle, I was able to rescue the life jacket. However, I question myself if I can rescue it, when wind blows crazy, the sea is rough, and all sails are up.
