This reminded me of the Queen's Head rock formation in Taiwan's Yeh-Liu Park. This one's the ugly neanderthal version.

More rock formations. We were whistled at for tossing a frisbee around.

Our rental car that had brakes that didn't work whenever Alvin drove. He was banned from driving.

We debated hiking up but elected to take the 8 minute tram up which was still a ways from the peak. It was pretty cold up there.

Piramides de Guimar. Recently discovered step pyramids. We got there as they were closing.
