Fuerteventura (pronounced: [fweɾteβenˈtuɾa]; loosely translated as "Strong Winds" or a corruption of the French term for "Great Adventure") is one of the Canary Islands, in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Africa, politically part of Spain. At 1,660 square kilometres (641 sq mi), it is the second largest of the Canary Islands, after Tenerife. It was declared a biosphere reserve by UNESCO in May 2009. Its capital is Puerto del Rosario.
The first settlers are believed to have arrived here from North Africa - the word Mahorero (Majorero) or Maho is still used today to describe the people of Fuerteventura and comes from the ancient word 'mahos' meaning a type of goatskin shoe worn by the original inhabitants. They lived in caves and semi-subterranean dwellings, a few of which have been discovered and excavated revealing relics of early tools and pottery. In antiquity, the island was known as Planaria, among other names, in reference to the flatness of most of its landscape.
Playa (plural playas) may refer to:
Gran Canaria (Spanish pronunciation: [ɡɾaŋ kaˈna.ɾja]; originally meaning "Great [Island] of Dogs") is the second most populous island of the Canary Islands, a Spanish archipelago, with a population of 838,397 which constitutes approximately 40% of the population of the archipelago. Located in the Atlantic Ocean about 150 kilometres (93 mi) off the northwestern coast of Africa and about 1,350 km (840 mi) from Europe.
Gran Canaria was populated by the Canarii, who may have arrived as early as 500 BC. The Canarii called the island Tamarán or Land of the Brave. After over a century of European (French, Portuguese...) incursions and attempts at conquest, the island was conquered on April 29, 1483, after a campaign that lasted five years, by the Crown of Castile, with the support of Queen Isabella I, a conquest which turned out to be an important step towards the expansion of the unified Spain.
The capital city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria was founded on June 24, 1478, under the name "Real de Las Palmas", by Juan Rejón, head of the invading Castilian army. In 1492, Christopher Columbus anchored in the Port of Las Palmas (and spent some time on the island) on his first trip to the Americas. Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is, jointly with Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the capital of the autonomous community of the Canary Islands.

This summer we had the chance with my girlfriend to go to the most deserted of the canary Islands : Fuerteventura.

Costa Calma Tourist Attractions, Fuerteventura, Spain Costa Calma is a beach resort on the Canarian island of Fuerteventura. Costa Calma is located at the beginning of the Jandía peninsula in the southern part of the island. Traditionally British winter sun seekers went to the North of the Island and German visitors tend to head for the south of the Island. So Costa Calma would tend to be catering more for German rather than British tastes.

Hey, like a fallen angel I was on your side
You lighted the fire deep in my soul
Do you remember the stars shining bright?
I should retire under your control
In seven nights and days
Oh, you didn't think your thing would come crashing down
In seven lonely dreams
Oh, I know that you're not the one I'm waiting for
Seven nights, seven days
Seven nights, I carried the can
'Cause I let you go, all our bridges were burned
Oh boy, it's on the cards, I don't wanna return
Seven nights, seven days
Seven nights, you blew your chance
Love was not forever in your heart
Due to that we have to live apart
Nothing's forever, no use to try
There's no solution, don't make me blue
We tried together, I kiss you goodbye
This endless confusion should not come true
In seven nights and days
Oh, you didn't think your thing would come crashing down
In seven lonely dreams
Oh, I know that you're not the one that I'm waiting for
Seven nights, seven days
Seven nights, I carried the can
'Cause I let you go, all our bridges were burned
Oh boy, it's on the cards, I don't wanna return
Seven nights, seven days
Seven nights, you blew your chance
Love was not forever in your heart
Due to that we have to live apart
Seven nights, seven days
Seven nights, I carried the can
'Cause I let you go, all our bridges were burned
Oh boy, it's on the cards, I don't wanna return
Seven nights, seven days
Seven nights, you blew your chance
Love was not forever in your heart
Due to that we have to live apart
