Where am I talking about in Tenerife...

Exactly what it says,
Start with a description and give clues if no one gets it.
There are 2 of these (that I know of).
One is in Adeje, the other is on the under prom in Fanabe/Del Duque area.
It has a nickname and I am looking for both.

Easy one to start, if you get it right your turn and it can be anywhere in Tenerife and anything, as long as it is feasible that members will know it.

Nobheads perhaps?

Nope, the one in Fanabe/del Duque area is run by the son of the Adeje one.

Is it the Chicken place, Othelo at the entrance to the Barranco del Infierno and the one in Fañabe.

Pretty similar to a cannon a chicken place...you're grasping at straws here Gypsy aren't you?

Yes! yes yes!

My turn... This is easy

On the way into a town in the North of the island, the road passes a fountain on which there is a statue of a woman who surveys the valley below. She can also be found in the South of the island where she offers plenty of accommodation to tourists – who and what is she?.

Oh, well done TD! And you Gypsy! Two well travelled clever-clogs.

Yes that's her Princesa Dácil was the daughter of Guanche mencey Bencomo, King of Taoro - who was a bitter enemy of the Spanish invaders. However, all is fair in love and war and the princess fell in love and married one of the conquistadors, Captain Fernán García del Castillo.

He built her this place in Los Cris

I guessed a bit and checked it out. Remember Princess Dacil was someone special and I love La Oratava and know the fountain and Statue, so checked it out.

Next one is a picture one.

What a lovely story. I've stayed there 3 times over the years. Getting a bit worn now though, built in 1974/75

Yep, the lovely beach by it.
Well Done.

I spy through my little eye the sea and if I am lucky a ship. I hide from the wind in a shady corner Where am I?.

If it is shady it must be one of Reg's car lots :Crazy:

This thread seems to have died ..... but reverting back to an earlier question here is a nice article about the GuancheS including TS's picture.

If it's a shady place out of the wind then I would guess at El Medano. Is that the corner of Montaña Roja in the first piccy?

Looks like a grizzly bear to me - or have I got Jungle Book on the brain?
