Good point! Though Nesbo is Norwegian, so at least I didn’t get everything wrong!

The inside looks so much better than it did when I was there ten years ago and it was still open to the elements. I promised myself then that I would come back and see it when it is finished. I’m not sure what is more impressive – the architecture or the ambition. “Masterpiece” doesn’t do it justice.

[...] So off I headed on the red route. The rain wasn’t heavy, so I sat upstairs in the open air, on the basis that sitting in the drizzle was still better than walking in it. The red route took me round many of the places I had already walked, but it was nice to get the commentary and find out a little more about them. Though the bus had fundamental problems when the rain got heavier and I had to go downstairs – the windows were covered in adverts for the bus, and you couldn’t actually see the sights through them! When we got to the big square in the middle of the city, I shifted onto the blue route, which took me up towards Tibidabo.

If you get up into the NW, the Butterfly House in Icod is much more impressive than I expected. In the NE La Laguna is much less impressive than I expected from a UNESCO city, but Candelaria has an excellent series of statues along the seafront. I’ll be impressed if you reach any of those by bike though.

That park is just down the road from where I live and I’ve cycled it many times on my way to/from Belfast. It’s actually called the “Newtownabbey Way”. The bridges are the Bleach Green Viaducts where the NIR Larne and Derry lines split – Google Map link here: http://is.gd/JRyEGB
