For the best adventures, use the best map. Gran Canaria Tour &
Trail Super-Durable Map (50k scale) is a large 960mm by 700mm
double sided map sheet which folds to its 235mm by 120mm pocket
size. A special concertina map fold makes the map easy to unfold
and refold in use. Super-Durable means water-proof and tear-proof,
simply wipe clean with a damp cloth if your map gets dirty. This
map has a "2 Year Guarantee" covering adventurous use. Gran Canaria
North is on one side with South on the reverse side, while a
generous common overlap minimises your map turning. This 6th
edition is the result of DWG partnering 'Rambling Roger', Isabelle
and Dane, surveying Gran Canaria in detail to produce this map. 20
metre and 100 metre contours combined with altitude shading bring
these impressive landscapes to life. All of the legendary Tour
& Trail attention to detail is included so that you will find
those petrol stations, mirador viewpoints with parking, refreshment
stops with parking and accurate road numbering that are so
essential when adventuring by hire car. 'Off-Tarmac' Gran Canaria
Tour & Trail Map is in a league of its own thanks to all the
hiking trails and dirt tracks surveyed by Roger, Isabelle and Dane.
Rambling Roger's walking trails from his latest guides are
highlighted in red making this map and Roger's guides perfect for
your walking adventures. We have also checked the walking routes
from `Landscapes of Gran Canaria' and `Rother Gran Canaria' so
whichever guide book you use this is your first choice map for your
adventures. While Gran Canaria Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map
will give years of adventurous use all the materials used in its
production are fully recycleable. Quite simply, this is the
toughest, most useable map of Gran Canaria for all your hiking,
biking, car touring adventures. Digital editions of our Gran
Canaria Tour & Trail Map are available as in-app purchases for
Outdooractive and Locus Map apps. Discovery Walking Guides offer
digital editions of Gran Canaria Tour & Trail Map in kmz

'One of those books that makes you feel good about being alive!'In
the imposing Glen Carrick House overlooking Scotland's famous Loch
Ness, lives eighty-eight-year-old Mimi McKinlay, cared for by her
three adult sons. Hamish has inherited his mother's musical
talents, Fin is the responsible brother, and Angus has the
complicated and brooding personality to match his dashing good
looks. But what all the brothers share is a concern that their
beloved mother is living in her memories of her days on stage,
while letting her present days pass her by. Jess Oliver is at a
turning point. Amicably divorced after years of being married, this
trip to the Highlands is a first taste of independence. It isn't
long before the beauty and hospitality of Scotland captures her
heart. When Mimi and Jess's paths cross, a friendship is formed
that will change both women's lives. And as together they find ways
to look forward instead of to the past, long forgotten dreams are
within reach, and every new day is fresh with possibilities. Take a
trip to the Highlands with Judy Leigh for an unforgettable story of
glorious pasts and fabulous futures, of love, friendship, family
and fun. The perfect feel-good novel for all fans of Dawn French,
Dee Macdonald and Cathy Hopkins. Readers love Judy Leigh: 'This
book, like its main character Mimi, exudes a certain joie de vivre
feeling as you turn the pages. Highly emotional in places but heart
warming and uplifting. Highly recommended.' Jennifer Bohnet 'Loved
this from cover to cover, pity I can only give this 5 stars as it
deserves far more.' 'The story's simply wonderful, the theme of
second chances will resonate whatever your age, there's something
for everyone among the characters, and I do defy anyone not to have
a tear in their eye at the perfect ending.' 'With brilliant
characters and hilarious antics, this is definitely a cosy read
you'll not want to miss.' 'A lovely read of how life doesn't just
end because your getting old.' 'A great feel-good and fun story
that made me laugh and root for the characters.' Praise for Judy
Leigh: 'Brilliantly funny, emotional and uplifting' Miranda
Dickinson 'Lovely . . . a book that assures that life is far from
over at seventy' Cathy Hopkins bestselling author of The Kicking
the Bucket List 'Brimming with warmth, humour and a love of life...
a wonderful escapade' Fiona Gibson

Don't just see the sights-get to know the people. New Zealand, or
Aotearoa (the "Land of the Long, White Cloud") as it is known by
the Maori population, is a land of myth and reality, contrast and
contradiction, rolling hills and glacial mountains, native bush and
gentle farmland. Its people are friendly and welcoming and will
often go the extra mile to help you without expecting anything in
return. Maori heritage and culture are an integral part of Aotearoa
today, and wherever you go, its influence is palpable. As a nation
of immigrants, New Zealanders are used to newcomers, yet those who
take the time to learn about the country's traditions and the
values that people hold dear will be rewarded with a more
meaningful and enriching experience of this beautiful land. Culture

multicultural nation. It examines the impact of history, religion,
and politics, while tips and vital insights into Kiwi attitudes,
