Well let´s not tempt fate, but if the earth is letting off a little excess pressure then the Volcanic Islands of Gran Canary are obviously interested.
The problems associated with volcanic ash have grounded the majority of flights bound from Northern Europe bound for these Islands, equally affecting those who expected to fly home on or after April 14th 2010.
Now in its third day the grounded airline in the U.K. have a very small number of flights air born, but as yet nothing has taken off from the U.K. for the Canary Islands.
The latest news this Saturday morning is that the skies in London are clear to the eye but everything is likely to remain grounded and that some flights may be possible at 1.00am Sunday Morning
Together with the "earthquake", admittedly 500 miles below the surface, but between Gibraltar and Mainland Spain just over a week ago mother earth has our attention.
So who´s up for booking a flight on December 21st 2012, any discounts on "final offer"?
The last volcano to erupt in the Canary Islands was in 1971, however the last earthquake was this March 2010, under the sea just south of Tenerife recorded a 4.3, and the first week of April saw 6.3 next to Gibralter, however that too was hundreds of miles below the sea
On a happier note most wine conesurs know the Grape vines nourished by the volcanic lava can be a blessing for several years, still this is possibly one piece of information Icelandic s don´t really need right now.
