"Tenerife North...
In short; it closes. On route to Barcelona, we found ourselves with a surpless night in Tenerife, so the airport was quickly decided to be the most prudent choice of roof's for our naive little heads. We even prepared- a Spanish version of Monopoly - 'Suppolly' or something of that ilk, was purchased. (for those that are interested, it is, in my opinion, an inferior immitation, with realistic property values that get annoying to count). Anyways, the stage was set, after an enjoyable afternoon galavanting around La Laguna (a gem of a place compared to the typical Tenerifian fare) we headed to the airport at nightfall for what we thought would be a drink fuelled night of procrastination. The airport had other ideas.
Halfway through our first Dorado and a couple of rolls of the dice, we were turfed out and told it would re-open at six the following morning.
This was no dissaster however, and made for some good banter. A table was erected from discared Dell boxes, and cushions made from the polystyrene inside. Monopoly was reconviened, and a bottle of red was opened. As if from our fantasies, a pizza boy turned up to deliver to the security, but in his broken English, and our even worse Spanish, he informed us that his shop had shut for the night. Gutting.
Overall, the climate was pleasent enough, the guards never bothered us, and there are plenty of long benches to strech out on. However, for amenities and warmth, its probably worth the hour and a half skirmish to Tenerife South."
