The Irish Independant has crowned Siam Park, Queen of the European theme parks. Coming in first of five, including Disneyland in Paris and Legoland in Denmark (I think I’d rather spend the day at the dentist than at a lego themed park, but to each their own).
That is pretty spectacular going considering Siam Park is so spanking new it is not even open yet. Pamela of Secret Tenerife reports that the latest opening date is September 15th though wryly comments that as yet she herself does not necessarily believe that date.
For a family of four (plus one teenage friend) the list of things to do in Tenerife is more than enough to keep everyone happy for two weeks. From bike rafting which everyone thoroughly enjoyed, to whale watching and jeep safari’s to La Gomera, Bob-Diving and theme parks galore the island is stuffed with opportunities to have fun and make friends.
For one little girl, making friends was not high on her list on the day she visited the camel park:
Though her Dad, Laurie was altogether more comfortable with his new four legged friend:
Even when they had a slight altercation over Laurie’s hat.
Having once been bitten in the bum by a bad tempered camel I’m not sure whether I would be as comfortable as Laurie with his new friend, just in case the big guy took the hump, but it is nice to see the camels without that ugly wire mesh over their faces.
