Phespirit goes to Fuerteventura
Jandía     September 2009


ISTMO DE LA PARED

It takes roughly an hour to walk across the Pared Isthmus between the east and west coasts of Fuerteventura.

Here is a view of the west coast side.

PICO DE LA ZARZA

Here is another view of the west coast, with the added bonus of Phespirit seated on the island's highest point, Pico de la Zarza.

Cofete is somewhere behind his left arm.

VILLA WINTER

In isolation to the northeast of Cofete is the enigmatic, eerie, run-down Villa Winter.

Since its construction by German engineer Gustav Winter in the 1940s it has been the subject of conspiracy theories ranging from it serving as a secret U-boat base to a safe house for Nazis escaping to America.
