The main church in the ancient capital of the island.
A nicely restored windmill just outside the town of Antigua in the island’s interior.
Prolonged December rains have turned the interior of Fuerteventura green.
Jaguars are the topic of ProfessorAbe’s latest post, but it does not feature any wildlife photos.
Ferries between the two islands run several times a day.
The Western Sahara lies just across the water.
It’s nice to see that the island still has many independent restaurants serving traditional dishes. The big chains have largely failed to gain a foothold.
Large cacti are ubiquitous on the island, in public spaces as well as private gardens.
An unusual property next to the town’s beach promenade.
