Lanzarote: not ruined by tourists yet
I hope this doesn't offend anyone but ZI thought it was kind of funny that this author uses the analogy of God spilling his cat's litter to describe the beauty of Lanzarote.
The author praises the island for not letting tourists ruin traditional towns and notes that most tourists are content to stay in the resorts so lots of places are still very authentic. Apparently you can even find a secret surf spot that the locals will want to protect from foreigners. Not that conflict with the locals sounds like fun.
Anyway, the article is a pretty good description of the author's experience in Lanzarote, including the "weirdest bar in the world".
I found a Youtube video which has photos from a Lanzarote vacation. It's not ideal - they keep showing pictures of the same lady over and over again but I watched a few videos and this one had the best landscape shots, mostly in the last 30 seconds. If you skip the first 3 minutes or so you won't miss too much but there are a few interesting pictures mixed in with all the lame "I'm modeling at the resort" pictures.
Have you ever been to Lanzarote and was the nature really spectacular?
