April 13th I went away with my best friend without my parents for the first time. We spent a week in Lanzarote. We went in the second week of half term which as you can imagine, lots of kids! But at the time when we booked this holiday in March we wanted to get away asap and this time was the cheapest and when we could go away with work. We stayed in an inclusive hotel called El Trebol.

We had a spar (supermarket) right outside our hotel which came in handy when food had stopped or we missed breakfast. There was a few shops, a sea life centre and bars nearby. We were just a 10 minute walk from the beach and a mini shopping centre. We enjoyed a cocktail bar there called Number One and a frozen yoghurt place called Yogur near the beach.
One day of our holiday we went to a zoo called Rancho Texas

We did go to a market in the evening on Wednesday but there wasn't many stalls about, the main market day was on a Sunday & that was the day we were leaving!
I had a really good holiday (still on holiday blues) and I can't wait for the next one!
