Gran Canaria

by in Chrome Postcards, Spain, Tourism

An island in my mailbox

This postcard, in the shape of Gran Canaria and mailed from Gran Canaria, made it all the way to me intact and, for the most part, undamaged.  There’s just a small crease threatening to cut off the peninsula in the northeast from the rest of the island, but it’s just been slightly bent, not folded.

Gran Canaria is one of the Canary Islands, an archipelago off the coast of Morocco and owned by Spain.  Yoli writes, “The weather is always warm and I love that because I hate cold! So if you haven’t been here yet, what are you waiting for?”

    Just as long as the crease is not indicative of an actual fault line in the island.
