    Fuerteventura Vlog September 2016 – A Lovely Month

    Fuerteventura Vlog September 2016 September and October are often the two nicest months here.

    Dance of the Pool Toys – a bit of fun!

  • Fuerteventura July

    Monthly Vlog Fuerteventura July 2016

    Monthly Vlog Fuerteventura July 2016 – A Hot and Quiet Month We had no visitors during July and as it was quite hot, with a Calima too, we did very little apart from cool off in the pool. That suited us but doesn’t make for much of an interesting video. But that is life here…
