Today we went to Las Palmas to see a professional basketball game. Pat has been researching and looking forward to this game since we started our trip in Madeira.
The arena is located in a huge sports complex in the outskirts of Las Palmas, next to the soccer stadium.
Our tickets were way up high, so there wasn't too many people sitting there. Pat bought one ticket in the first row, two in the second and two in the 4th row behind another family.
Being near the top of the stadium worked out well, because Ellis and Jasper had some space to run around. Ellis liked to clap, even when the other team got points and Jasper preferred to constantly yell "Boom Shak-a-lack-a". He was pretty jazzed about having a seat in the front in a row all to himself.
The home team ended up winning the game, and by enough points that the last 2 minutes didn't take an hour.
After our last Sunday lunch at 100 Montaditos, the clouds rolled into the valley and the sun just peaked through over the hills.
Ellis got to play walnut farmer all by herself while Jasper took an extended nap. We thought he might be sick, but he seemed to perk up later in the evening.
It's hard to believe that we only have 2 days left on our trip!
