I editor‘s letter

The above question has less to do with individual bank accounts or government economic policies and rather more to do with how the industry, particularly the private sector, is treating many of the ‘new’ tourists who arrived here in recent months as a result of the ongoing instability in North Africa, where they might previously have holidayed. As we know, Tunisia’s and Egypt’s loss has been our gain, but for how long? Warning bells have been sounded in some quarters that hoteliers and others involved in the service industry are taking the recent increase in tourism numbers too lightly.

The industry here posted excellent figures for February and March, and many hotels are reportedly booked out up to June, but it would appear that some in the industry need to be reminded that just because there’s a boom doesn’t mean all tourists shouldn’t be treated as special guests. In more than one location hotels haven’t re-hired even though numbers are way up, meaning that holidaymakers are queuing longer for check-ins, meals, drinks, etc. in their resort destinations. Trying to make a quick buck and cut corners to exploit the unexpected boom can and probably will backfire and destination loyalty is hard won and easily lost.

So let’s make an extra effort to look after all our guests, it will only benefit us in the long run.

Are we looking after our assets?

� APRIL 2010

I editor‘s letter

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that the Canary Islands are, for most of the time, a pretty good place to live.If you have spent more than a few years here and set up home, are working and raising a family, you tend to forget the pluses concentrating, as you do, on the day to day stuff, mortgages, keeping the fridge full, school runs...So now and then it makes sense to stop and smell the Canarian roses.There are very few places in the world that have the enviable climate we can pretty much rely upon here in the Canary Islands. Apart from the odd wet (ok, in recent times very wet!) day, most of the islands experience delightful climates, with a trip to the beach an all-year-around choice. The other thing that maybe we take for granted, or perhaps don’t allow ourselves to experience, is the richness of the diverse cultures around us. We live in a real salad bowl of nationalities, identities and backgrounds. Taking your child to school the likelihood is that there are parents from Spain, South America, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, England, Ireland, Belgium, Croatia, all chatting away in their differing levels of Spanish, exchanging news about their kids, who are and represent the next generation of Canarians. With just a smattering of Spanish we can delve into the rich cultural mix that we have here, and making friends with people we might never meet living our ‘old’ or other lives. It’s a huge plus, one we might not make the most of, but there to be exploited.If someone is asking about coming to live in the Canary Islands it’s hard to know what to advise – if you live here and made the move you often know instinctively who is going to make it and who won’t. But those who are almost guaranteed to get the most out of their time here are those who see the full picture and are willing to take the plunge and find out what the real Canaries, beyond the sea and sun, are all about.

I what‘s new

Antique, collectors’ and vintage fairBetween the 10th and 15th of May, there will be an Antique, Collectors’ and Vintage Fair at the Recova Vieja (next to Teatro Guimerá) in Santa Cruz which has been organised by Rastrillo Portobello in collaboration with the Santa Cruz Rotary Club and their campaign to collect funds towards the eradication of polio in the world.

The fair will be open Tuesday to Saturday from midday to 9pm, and Sunday 11am to 2pm. Ideal for picking up something really unusual, do go along and support this very worthy cause. More information is available by calling 922 63 65 63 or 609 367 003, or by visiting www.rastrilloportobello.com.

New menu at Las AguasWith the arrival of Spring, Braulio Simancas, chef of the Gran Hotel Bahía del Duque’s flagship restaurant Las Aguas, has renewed the menu. Simancas has opted for ingredients which not

only place Canarian cuisine in a leading position internationally, but have also begun to arouse much international specialist media interest outside of the island.

Recently awarded with a Sol (sun) in the Repsol Guide, Las Aguas is one of the best known and most recommended gastronomic spaces in Tenerife and, as such, has helped the Gran Hotel Bahía del Duque, together with its other restaurants, to become a leading gastronomic destination.For more information, go to www.bahia-duque.com.

Mercedes-Benz choose TenerifeMercedes-Benz chose Tenerife as the location for the worldwide presentation of this year’s new models. As a result,

the magazine �

what‘s new I

during March, over 700 specialist motoring journalists visited the island, not only for the presentation, but also to test drive the vehicles in Tenerife. Mercedes-Benz shipped a good supply of vehicles to the island from Germany for the event, many of which could be seen parked behind the Hotel San Blas Reserva Ambiental where several associated functions took place.Cabildo president, Ricardo Melchior and councillor for tourism, José Manuel Bermúdez, together with Juan Vilella Rahn, President of the Grupo Vilella Rahn, Mercedes-Benz agency in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, thanked Mercedes-Benz for choosing Tenerife for this visit which is seen as one of the most relevant events of the year in the motoring world. For Rahn-Star, it was an honour to be able to take part.As a result, European press and promotional material for these new models bears photographs of the cars which were taken in Tenerife, not only good for Mercedes but good for Tenerife too.

Designer carsToyota recently renewed its agreement with Gran Canaria’s fashion design collective, Moda Cálida, during their Summer: Food and Fashion Week which took place during April.

The motor company and the designers joined hands in this programme developed by the Cabildo of Gran Canaria, with Toyota Street Fashion – a contest aimed at Moda Cálida’s designers – who turned plain vehicles into real designer cars, giving a new meaning to the term ‘personalised vehicle’.Three Toyota Urban Cruisers were given their finishing touches before being displayed in Calle Triana, Las Palmas. The designers selected were Elena Rubio, Delia Miranda and María González, and they were accompanied for the event by designer Modesto Lomba and Inés Jiménez, the Gran Canaria Cabildo’s councillor for industry.

Día de CanariasMay 30th, Día de Canarias, is one of the most celebrated fiestas in the islands and relates to the Canarian identity and the anniversary of the first session of the Canarian Parliament, based in Santa Cruz, which took place on May 30th 1983, and was presided over by Pedro

Guerra Cabrera. There will be cultural, traditional, political and festive events taking place all over the Canary Islands to celebrate this day, during which you are likely to see many local people proudly wearing traditional Canarian costumes. Additionally, the President of the Canarian Government will hold an institutional gala at which the Premios de Canarias and the Medallas de Oro will be awarded.

Dogs on showThe XXIV National Dog Show incorporating the XV International Dog Show, under the rules of the Royal Spanish Canine Society, is taking place in Santa Cruz on May 14th and 15th in the Recinto Ferial. The organisation’s Tenerife branch is hosting the event which will feature pure bred races - Boxers, Dogo Canario, Canarian Greyhounds, French Bulldogs, and mixed showings of Bedlington Terriers, Bull Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Kerry Blues in one group and American Staffordshire Chihuahuas, Griffons, Lhasa Apsos, Shih-tzus and others.More information from the society, http://www.sociedadcaninadetenerife.es

swan lake on ice

The Imperial Ice Stars bring Swan Lake on Ice to the Tenerife Auditorium Adán Martín in Santa Cruz from 25th to 29th May. They have performed for three million people across five continents and have toured Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, UK, Germany, Spain, Holland, France, Belgium, Finland, Monaco, South Africa, Canada, Russia, and even Cyprus where they performed in an outdoor amphitheatre in temperatures of 40ºC. Some of the dancers started skating from as young as the age of four, and between them they have won over 250 competition medals. The technical team behind the

Imperial Ice Stars have perfected the art of creating on-stage ice rinks to provide the ideal skating surface for the performers. Two chillers, over 16 kilometres of refrigeration pipes and 600 gallons of water are used to create 14 tonnes of ice, all in the space of 34 hours.

The Imperial Ice Stars began in 2004 as a joint venture between two leading producers of live entertainment, Tony Mercer and James Cundall, and businessman and former speed-skater Vladislav Onenin. The Daily Telegraph describes this show as “a great night out for all the family”, and the cast as “simply superb”, whilst the Sunday Telegraph says, “The Imperial Ice Stars are to skating what Cirque du Soleil is to circus; inspiring, original, and great theatre”.Exhilarating and dazzling, this show is not to be missed.

The official opening of the new church in Callao Salvaje was attended by Adeje mayor José Miguel rodríguez Fraga and the bishop of Tenerife His Excellency Bernardo Álvarez.

There were obviously a number of different branches of Christianity represented, as was made clear too by the mayor in his brief speech when he mentioned that the church would be open for Anglican as well as RC services in the future. Inside the church, the two hour ceremony, with a full mass and blessing of all the church’s installations, was followed by tapas and drinks outside by the village cultural centre, and everyone seemed more than happy that the church was open at last.

New church for Callao Salvaje

The wedding of Simone Kent and Trinitario Sanchez rodriguez took place at La Caleta on Saturday 9th April.

The ceremony and the fabulous reception, held at the Costa Adeje Palace, were attended by a wide ranging group of friends and family, including the four children they have between them.Simone works at the Castillo San Miguel, and Trinitario is a Chief Inspector in the Policia Nacional - hence all those uniforms!

a ship, a destiny. Past, present and future of correíllo la PalmaJET FoiL STATion, unTiL JuLy 16TH, 10AM-2PM, 5PM-9PM

This exhibition is organised under the auspices of the Tenerife museums organisation in conjunction with the foundation established to promote the steamship Correíllo La Palma as a maritime museum and a promotional platform for the Canarian seas. Visitors can look back in time, and see both the life and times of this particular vessel, placed within the context of the political, social and economic times of its service in the waters of the archipelago.

The significant changes in steam boats both as methods of transport, cargo and mail delivery are also explored.The Correíllo La Palma is considered much more than a boat, and is a treasured part of

past life in the islands as well as symbolic of an era that ended centuries of a lack of inter-island contact, changing lives forever. Information 922 209 318www.museosdetenerife.org

Conventional and alternative medicine working together

the magazine 13

Have you ever had a medical problem which, no matter how many times you have returned to the clinic to sort it out, and how many tests have been made, your traditional physician just cannot seem to find a cause? Sometimes traditional medicine is just not enough, and it could be that subconsciously you are harbouring some unresolved emotional issues which are affecting you physically and making you feel unwell.

Finding the root of the problem, and having it solved is easy. Yes, you will have to pay, but no more than maybe a facial treatment, even a pot of cream to soften your wrinkles, or a new bottle of seductive aftershave lotion.One doctor in Tenerife was curious enough to question traditional medicine. She was aware from personal experience that some problems were not solely scientific in nature, cases where tests revealed nothing. She knew in her own heart that there is much more to the human body than that which is purely physical. María Nieves Rodríguez has spent 20 years in traditional medicine, working in accident and emergency units, and has more recently spent much time studying alternative medicine and spiritual matters, working with Colin Bloy (founder of Fountain International) to discover what part they played in our physical health. She studied several advanced alternative techniques including cellular regeneration, energy fields and quantum medicine, which works on the principal that each and every cell in our bodies has a memory, and is linked to the others by an invisible network – our energy field which, in turn, is inextricably linked

with the whole Universe.Once you can understand this theory,

maybe you can see how emotional, spiritual or psychological trauma,

guilt or stress, or even events in

the Universe can affect our physical wellbeing and form a blockage. If an area is blocked, in the worst case scenario it could develop into a degenerative disease such as cancer.María Nieves works to release these sub-conscious blocks from the past which have been recorded in the cells of our bodies. She not only seeks physical wellbeing for her patients, but emotional, spiritual and psychological health too. She seeks to balance various centres – there could be a problem with your skeletal system or an energy field. By moving her hands slowly over your body, she can find the problem area, and says that she does not need to talk much with her patients, just to confirm that you maybe have an ache here, or a pain there. It is, however, evident that she dedicates much time to each and every one. The basis of all treatments is for the patient to connect with his inner self, to recognise who he is and open his consciousness.María comments, “we are more responsible for our own illnesses than we think. We fail to go with our inner selves and we concentrate too much on what’s going on outside, our obligations, being late for appointments, etc.” In many ways, she is right. Ask yourself how many times you have taken your cat or dog to the

I health & beauty

vet, and paid the bill without giving it a second thought. But generally, you would think twice or maybe three times about caring for yourself in the same way.María Nieves will find a method which is best suited to solve each individual problem, to rectify the course of your own electro-magnetic energy and this could be, for example, acupuncture, magnetism, Ayurvedic medicine, homeopathic medicines, Bach flower remedies, or a combination of these and traditional medicines.

She may not necessarily use acupuncture needles, but will often work with acupuncture points.Spain in general is way behind much of the rest of the world in accepting alternative treatments and medicines, but María comments that, “humanity in general is now tending to open up to these ideas, that one form of medicine can complement the other”. She has experience of one and the knowledge of the other, and brings the two worlds together. She would like to find more doctors who have a similar vision. “At the moment, we are saving bodies, but not doing much for their souls”.From a patient’s point of view, you will feel a change after your very first visit to see María. Subconsciously there will be an emotional release and you will feel tremendously relaxed. Your relationships with your nearest and dearest will improve as a result, and you will feel physically better.Go on, get yourself better now, and find the real you! María works once a week with chiropractor Luke Ramsay at his clinic in Palm Mar (telephone 922 748 904 for an appointment), or at her own clinic in Santa Cruz (600 774 525).

The lucky winners of the wonderful cruise, donated by Tenerife Sunshine.com last november, flew to Tenerife over Easter to see something of the island and to go off on their spectacular prize-winning trip.

Gary Andrews and his fiancée Emma Storey from Leicestershire were not expecting a, “big holiday” this year as they are saving to get married, but winning the Thomson’s Colourful Coasts cruise on board the Island Escape changed their plans. They had a fabulous time, visiting Gran Canaria, La Palma, Madeira, Morocco and Lanzarote on their cruise. Their favourite stop off was Gran Canaria where they coincided with a major rally and had a great time watching that most of the day. They were very impressed with the choice of entertainment on board the Island

Escape, “lots to do every night, but we were rubbish at the quizzes” and at the high standard of the food, “something different each day, Mexican, Italian, Chinese, Indian,” always a wide choice of international cuisine, especially the breakfasts which Gary described as, “awesome. As the customers were mainly British, they had really good British sausages and bacon!”Gary and Emma also spent some time before and after the cruise travelling all over Tenerife, visiting some of the iconic areas and two of the island’s must sees – Siam Park, “brilliant” and Loro Parque, “a great day out. We saw the killer whales twice”.A big thank you to Tenerife Sunshine.com, Troya Beach, Playa de las Américas (922 751867) for such a spectacular holiday for our readers and certainly our most popular prize to date.

The new SLK roadster, one of the most exciting and successful sports cars ever built, has entered its third generation. it uncompromisingly takes driving pleasure and open-air enjoyment to a new level, blending light-footed sportiness with stylish comfort, a striking sports car design with total suitability for everyday use, top performance with exemplary ecology.

What’s more, the SLK is proud to present the world premiere of the panoramic vario-roof with Magic Sky Control. The roadster‘s efficiency and sporty flair come courtesy of powerful new 4- and 6-cylinder engines featuring the standard specification ECO start/stop function. With their superb performance levels, they are up to 25 per cent more economical than their predecessors. With a unique set of safety equipment and a wealth of technical innovations, the SLK once again sets the benchmark in its class. In terms of design, the upright radiator grille stands proud and confident in the wind, facilitating the long and well proportioned bonnet and with its rearward light-catching contours, hinting at the roadster’s dynamic qualities. The wide grille prominently bears the Mercedes-Benz star and displays a powerfully contoured fin, chromed at the front. The clearly defined headlamps complete the look for the new SLK’s face, which resembles that of the legendary 190 SL from the 1950s, regarded by many as being the original ‘SLK’. The designers also intentionally created a close visual link with the new SLS AMG ‘gull-wing model’ and the new CLS. The elegant side view with classic roadster proportions is a visual promise of

the sportiness and driving pleasure in store. Meanwhile the wide headlamps boast all-LED technology for the first time. The most compact in its class, the new SLK has an extremely generous interior which is characterised by sporty refinement, well planned ergonomics and high quality, authentic materials, processed with painstaking attention to detail and skilled craftsmanship. Even in the base version the centre console and other trim parts gleam in brushed aluminium. Wood is optional, in high-gloss dark brown

walnut or high-gloss black ash. The SLK’s generous dial instruments are flanked by a display for online computer information. The colour display for communications and entertainment functions, in the centre of the dashboard, can be easily read by both the driver and passenger. On the top of the dashboard, also in the centre, sits a fine analogue clock, subtly underlining the roadster’s stylish character.Other high-quality items of equipment include a multifunction sports steering wheel with a flattened lower

section and a thick leather rim, plus optional sun-reflecting leather which noticeably reduces the degree to which its surfaces heat up, impressive ambient lighting which for the first time has a red tone, and the innovative neck-level heating system Airscarf, familiar from the preceding model. For the first time Mercedes-Benz is offering a choice of three variants of the lightweight construction Magic Sky Control vario-roof for the new SLK. In just a few seconds this feature transforms the roadster into a coupé with a ‘fixed’ roof at the touch of a button, and vice versa. The base version is a roof painted in the vehicle colour. Alternatively there is the panoramic vario-roof with tinted glass. The third variant is a world premiere, the panoramic vario-roof with Magic Sky Control. This glass roof switches to light or dark as you wish at the press of a button. When light it is virtually transparent, offering an open-air experience even in cold weather. In its dark state the roof provides welcome shade and prevents the interior from heating up when the sun’s rays are very intense. In other words: a feel-good atmosphere at the touch of a button.The innovative draught-stop for the new SLK consists of pivoting, transparent perspex sections attached to the reverse of the roll-over bars. The driver or passenger can pivot them to the centre of the vehicle in a flash, thus taming turbulent air flow. When not required, they disappear almost invisibly behind the roll-over bars. The newly developed SLK has as its most important hallmarks third generation direct injection, Piezo injectors and multi-spark ignition. There are also three suspension versions to choose from: a conventional steel suspension comes as

standard. A sports suspension with harder springs and dampers ensures a systematically sporty driving experience, and as an alternative, a Dynamic Handling package is available. This includes an electronically controlled, fully automatic damping system giving the vehicle excellent suspension comfort even on poor road surfaces, but still offering high driving dynamics. Also included in the Dynamic Handling package are a Direct-Steer system and the Torque Vectoring Brakes developed by Mercedes-Benz. The Direct-Steer system offers more handling and agility than the standard steering, and reduces the amount of physical effort required when parking. In critical conditions the Torque Vectoring Brakes produce a stabilisation of the SLK without any compromises where dynamism is concerned, giving precise steering and full control.The new SLK’s bodyshell structure has been further refined, with the bonnet and wings now made of aluminium. This new roadster also sets new safety benchmarks. The third generation SLK has a host of the latest assistance systems to support the driver, including the drowsiness detection

system Attention Assist, developed by Mercedes-Benz and fitted as standard; the optional anticipatory occupant protection system Pre-Safe®, unique in the world; and the Pre-Safe® Brake, which can apply the brakes autonomously in the event of an impending rear-end collision.Further assistance systems are available on request, including Distronic Plus, a proximity control system which automatically maintains a set distance from the vehicle ahead, braking the roadster to a standstill if necessary and accelerating again; the Intelligent Light System which provides five lighting functions (cornering light function, country mode, motorway mode, active light function and enhanced fog lamps), which are activated depending on the driving conditions, and finally Speed Limit Assist, which can detect speed limit signs using a camera on the inside of the windscreen, and indicate the detected speed limit in the instrument cluster or central display.For more information about this and other exciting new Mercedes-Benz models, visit www.rahn.es for details of your nearest dealer.

Most of us have dreamt, at some stage, of having a personal chef. Someone who has the best contacts for the freshest of prime materials, chooses the best on offer each day and then prepares it exactly how you want it. That dream is now an affordable reality at La Náutica in El Médano.

The new owner of this well known venue, Toribio, has a lot of experience in this field and has come up with an exciting concept – fresh food prepared to order, the way you like it best. The restaurant is a delight standing out from the rest for its cleanliness, its marine themed royal blue and white interior and its spacious terrace (right next to a children’s playground) with spectacular views of Montaña Roja, the beach and the kite and wind surfers.The menu is a mere guide. What’s important are the fridges and display cabinets inside and the information your friendly multilingual waiter can share with you. Whether you want a full meal, a snack or tapas, this restaurant can cater for you. They offer a full range of starters including whitebait, fresh battered fish fingers and the Canarian speciality gofio escaldado from just €2.50. Soups and salads start at €3.50. On the day of our visit they had camerones – soft shell shrimp – which had come straight from a local fisherman’s boat into the kitchens here. These can be salty or over-boiled, but not here, they were cooked to perfection, full of flavour and they went down a treat with a glass of white wine as we chatted to

the chef about the options available.They deal with local fishermen from El Tejado right through to Alcalá so the fish menu depends on what the sea delivers that morning. Explaining the menu, the chef told us, “why should I go to the market and buy hake that might be a bit ropey just because I have hake on the menu. I will buy the best of what’s on offer, if the monkfish is the best I will buy the monkfish.”Fresh fish is charged by weight and type and the restaurant also offers cazuelas of fish (casseroles) and real paella, full of chunks of fish and shellfish.Meat dishes are also on offer from €7.90 with an excellent selection of top cuts of beef, chicken or whatever you like. If you fancy a T-bone, order it, and the best T-bone the market has to offer will be bought in especially for you, or perhaps your choice is suckling pig or roast lamb, the same applies. Any cut can be obtained for you and will be prepared for you as you want when you arrive. They also have Spanish style snails and typical Canarian goat meat stew on the menu, with wrinkled potatoes and their own mojo sauces and speciality dishes such as lobster with rice can also be prepared to order. If you are a gastronome and enjoy typical Spanish dishes such as those made with salted fish, here the chef selects the best fish, the best salt and salts the product himself, including making the typical jareas of the Canaries. You can also order elvers and thick Galician Goose barnacles – anything your heart desires. They have an excellent supplier and can fulfil your every whim.The wine list offers a selection from the famous Torres bodega, Canarian wines and includes some from Rueda, Rioja, Ribera del Duero and there’s an excellent choice of sparkling wines.At weekends they always buy in larger fish: swordfish, grouper, amberjack etc., whatever the sea has to offer, and however you want it prepared, it will be done. Some dishes may take a little longer obviously but with a free wifi

zone and these views and comfort, waiting is a pleasure.Sauces available include red and white wine, Vizcaina, Bilbaina, champagne, hollandaise, béarnaise, garlic (ajoarriera), Galician, green sauce (usually with parsley or coriander), Basque, mustard, Rossini, port, or with the essences of whatever shellfish the restaurant has in stock on the day.To get a good idea of the variety on offer we chose monkfish and fillet steak. The monkfish looked as if it had only just stopped swimming! We asked for the chef’s recommendation of sauces and were not disappointed.The monkfish was filleted, cooked whole and then sliced, dressed with a sauce made from fresh giant red prawns and topped with a selection of prawns. Cooking it whole meant that it maintained its firmness and the sauce combined with and complemented the fish rather than overpowering it, the two flavours mingling exquisitely on the palate. The dish gave the full flavour of the sea and is highly recommended to all those who enjoy fish and shellfish in prime condition. We ended up dunking our bread rolls so as not to waste a drop!

restaurants I

The fillet steak when it came was an enjoyable surprise - we had again left it to the discretion of the chef. Laid on a bed of onions glazed with red wine, the steak was served with fried sliced potatoes and had been cut into strips before flash frying to retain all the flavour and then woven with some beautiful al dente buttered carrots for presentation and flavour. The garnish was rolls of bacon wrapped in grilled red peppers, the slightly bitter flavour of the peppers combining perfectly with the streaky bacon and contrasting with the slight sweetness of the onions. Simply delicious!We had no room for dessert, (too much bread roll and sauce) but there is an excellent selection including home made mousse, tiramisu and Canarian quesillo starting at just €3.20 and if you like some music with your meal, a Cuban singer/guitar player entertains on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7pm onwards and then on Saturdays from 8pm and Sundays from 4pm a

local ‘parranda’ comes by. This can be anything from two friends to eight, who play and sing typical Canarian and Spanish language songs and get the customers’ feet tapping. Join in and really get into the swing of things!This is a great restaurant to chill out at, meet with friends, take pleasure in the view and the atmosphere and enjoy a great meal cooked to your specifications. The last word is with the chef, “I don’t like being restricted to a menu, I like to give the customers what they want using top quality prime materials. If I serve it, it’s good!”

The very latest of the tough double marathon plus races attracted top athletes to sign up for the Ultratrail in Tenerife recently.

At midnight on the night of 15th/16th of April, wearing red plaques with their numbers, 167 runners lined up in Los Cristianos to set off on the 95 km race to La Orotava up and down changes in altitude of over 11,000 metres and through some of the most beautiful and most desolate scenery that the island has to offer.Specialist, Miguel Heras, who had flown over especially for the event from his home in Salamanca, soon opened up an impressive lead and by the time he passed Vilaflor he had already

opened up a 25 minute gap and averaged 14 kph on the uphill stretch. The Ifonche to Vilaflor section was considered very tough indeed by a lot of runners and several dropped out at the station in Vilaflor. By the time they reached the Cañadas del Teide and turned off to continue up and over Montaña Blanca some of the runners had frost on their clothing from the extreme cold and couldn’t stop to put on their gloves as that would have been worse. We saw one runner with frost in his eyebrow!By the time the Trail runners of a ‘mere’ 52 kilometres started at 8am from the Parador in the National Park, it had warmed up a little but not a lot. They had blue plaques on their numbers to distinguish them.

Halftrail runners set forth with green plaques from La Caldera for their 21km run at noon and it was here that the adapted route for the physically challenged was also raced in and around La Caldera.For the Ultratrailers and the Trailers, this section must have been a nightmare, after a long run already and a long downhill stretch they suddenly had to turn uphill again to go up towards Los Organos.The finish line at La Orotava was well supported and each runner cheered in as he or she arrived. All along the route, local police, Guardia Civil, army, Red Cross and even three cars of the Canarian regional police were on hand to

help and support along with a huge number of volunteers. Just over 30 runners from all the categories had to abandon – a low figure considering the toughness of the test. All the runners, in all categories had special microchips tied into their boots to register automatically when they went through certain checkpoints and to act as location devices should they become lost.On arrival at La Orotava the runners were bussed to a local sports centre where they picked up their belongings, showered, and regained strength with the aid of drinks, yoghurts, plátanos and paella. A group of volunteer physiotherapy students were also on hand with their professor to succour the weary and aching with their skills.

A three day conference on ‘Doing business with Africa’, was held recently for the first time in Tenerife, in the Gran Hotel Bahía del Duque, Costa Adeje, at which private investors were asked to lead the way in forging new relationships with African countries.

Representatives of over 200 key American business players attended the event, and a few of them are pictured at the cocktail party which took place on the eve of the conference.

In July, the Professional Windsurfers Association (PWA) World Tour comes to El Médano, a town which is already a windsurfers’ paradise. The Daniel Bruch windsurf club has many enthusiastic members, most of whom are resident in the town.

Daniel Bruch and his friend José Manuel have organised this year’s event which promises to bring lots of sport, entertainment and fun to the area, and hence many very welcome visitors. Daniel is a professional windsurfer who first began surfing at the age of 13. Two years later, he began to windsurf with a friend and since then he hasn’t been able to stop. He began competing at the age of 17. Three years later, he took a break during which time he worked in his father’s TV and satellite business. Five years on, he decided that fitting TV aerials and the like was not what he really wanted out of life, and besides, he only had time to windsurf at the weekends. A change was needed.First he opened a business with his girlfriend, but later on decided to concentrate on the sport and training. He had an ambition – to be one of the top 10 windsurfers. His persistence paid off as two years later he reached the 7th position, in the third year 11th and last year he reached number 5. He told The Magazine, “for everything I’ve done, I’ve seen a reward”. This has required much investment and time, as at the age of 25, backers are hard to find. Having achieved this much, and been one of the top five, he still says he will carry on fighting until he reaches the top.He has travelled far and wide and seen many windsurfing

venues, which made him wonder why we don’t have a PWA Tour event in El Médano. The conditions couldn’t be better, with so many windy days, especially in the summer, not to mention the wonderful surroundings. He commented, “usually it’s either one or the other – weather or surroundings”, but El Médano has it all, especially during July and August.He says, “it has been 15 years since we had this event in El Médano and I’ve been pushing to get it back. That last El Médano event in 1996 was the first PWA event I entered”.He told us that he tried for three years running to get it back, and for various reasons including the economic crisis, it wasn’t until the third try that he struck lucky.We asked Daniel (pictured right) what was involved in organising this event. First of all, he told us that funding, or sponsorship, had to be gained, and this year’s main sponsors are the Ayuntamiento de Granadilla, the Tenerife Cabildo and the Canarian Government. He says that the PWA asks for many things which you have to provide, and then of course the event has to be publicised, in the press, on TV and radio. Daniel is still seeking more sponsors, as he says that they only have the minimum at the moment and the PWA Tour is costly to bring to Tenerife.The 2011 event will not only be a sporting one, it will be more of a festival with entertainment both night and

day, lots of shops and brands participating, stands on the beach with food and clothing, a party tent and a possible skating competition or exhibition. There will also be a car exhibition and the highlight (and a big attraction) will be the raffle organised by the local businesses association in which you could win a car.48 men and 16 women from all over the world will be competing during the week, including a good number of Canarians. Others will be coming from Brazil, the US, Spain, Germany, France, Italy, the UK, Ireland, Japan, Venezuela and more. During the event, Daniel says he will take off his organiser’s vest and compete at his home spot in El Médano (he’s going for the top!).Some events have yet to be confirmed, as there has been a high level of interest with many ideas coming forward. We will publish more information in our next issue.In the meantime, Daniel would like to thank all the authorities for their generous support, and of course his own personal sponsors who are: Starboard, Severne, O’Neill, OTC, Flying Objects, AL360, MB-Fins, and CINDEtenerife.com.Everyone is invited to attend. It’s free, entertaining and fun for all the family, and it all happens between the 14th and 20th July at Playa de El Cabezo, El Médano. There will be events for both men and women commencing at 10am every day. This will be a great promotion for all of Tenerife as the whole surfing world’s interest will be focused on the island during that week. Be there and be part of it!
