Here is an extract from one of the brochures that the travel agent
gave Thomas:

"Tenerife, the largest of the Canary Islands, is situated in the
Atlantic Ocean, close to the coast of Africa. The island enjoys spring
weather all year round, with average temperatures of 20 degrees in
winter and 25 in the summer. Tenerife is the ideal place to enjoy the
seaside or to practise all sorts of outdoor activities, both in the
sea and on land. Tenerife has much to offer culturally and
commercially: a permanent calendar of exhibitions, music and theatre,
as well as the best shops and shopping centres. For nightlife, there
are atmospheres to suit every taste. And don't forget to enjoy the
delicious fish and seafood in Tenerife's typical restaurants!"
