So after a very nice flight we landed after ten years again in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. For the first time Arne and I tried the well-tried division of tasks abroad: I was waiting for the suitcases and Arne dealed the procedure with the car rental. It worked fine and again we received an upgrade.
The description to the apartment in Puerto Rico is excellent and we find it directly. In between the Motorway doesn’t end before Arguinegin but after Puerto Rico – we used it very often. Mona, our renter, was waiting for us and a really nice person. The apartment is tall, plain but clean and well furnished. So I would have to think a while, when I had the last time a better furnished holiday kitchen and cooking was real fun and worked fine this time.
The first activity is shopping. In the nearby Shopping Center is a Hyper Dino (there are some more supermarkets, but this one is the most cheapest in the area). But the store is one of the unattracivest one of the range, I ever visited and parking at the center is a real problem. As we have a car and are flexible, we later made our purchases mostly in the Dino in Puerto de Mogán or in the Carrefour in Vecindario.
But at the moment it was good enough to get satisfied and after a short break we started to our first short trip.
A short hint: On Gran Canaria the Streetnumbers changed, someone who wasn’t there for a while should take a look, if the street map is still working 
We drive to Soria, there is a reservoir, but it is empty. The continuation is the first adventure. We want to drive a bit more to the heartland, and and turn off in direction Mogán to go down too Puerto de Mogán.
The street has according to the map an official number and is in good conditions. But it is really narrow and oncoming traffic makes Arne very business (and no, it is definetly NO one-way street). At the turning we respire a bit. The street, we are now using, didn’t exist this way ten years ago, parts of it where piste. But know it is fine and we have a nice look down the valley.
Mogán itself didn’t change so much, the one passage in the village is as small as it was ten years ago. In direction Puerto the street passes beautifull little villages, one after another. Puerto de Mogán changed more, but in an acceptable way: The empty square on the left side of the tiver valley is now in crop (here is also the new shopping center with the much better Hyper Dino) till the beach, but it stay reasonable, the houses not too high, abit in the stile of the harbour and with several nice shops. The beautifull harbour stayed as ten years before.
We found a good car park and strolled, before turning back to the apartment over the street along the coast.
