Reader's Mobility Update, February 2012

2012-02-10T17:37:56Z

Please find a culmination of latest updates from readers of Lanzarote Information who would like to share accessibility information gained from their holidays in Lanzarote.

Ben visited Lanzarote this summer, he hired a car and reminds you to bring your Blue Badge……

I am disabled and visited Lanzarote in the summer. Upon arrival at the airport I was really impressed, the airport is very disabled friendly with ramps and lots of ground level access.

The main tourist attractions are a totally different story, there were a few exceptions like the camel ride and the volcano visitor centre (although it was impossible to see everything there as there are many steps).

The main beaches and urbanisations are OK but I found you have to travel along the promenade quite often for a long way before you can find access to a ramp to get back on the shopping areas.

Cueva del Agua is impossible unless you just want to look at it. Some beaches in Costa Teguise are good for wheelchairs, the main beach in Arrecife was perfect for access and there are a few disabled parking bays in Teguise but if you want access to them on market days you have to arrive early (ignore the paid parking on the way into the village). I hired a car which meant I was more mobile than most and as there can be many steep inclines which are unsuitable for wheelchairs and disabled, my mobility was good.

There are also some good bus tours that cater for disabled people. I went on a fishing trip that from Puerto del Carmen that had good access for wheelchair users on the marina and a ramp onto the fishing boat.

If I can remember the names of any of the businesses I will let you know, really hope this helps. Also if you are hiring a car make sure to bring your Blue Badge as they are recognised all over the EU and there are some disabled bays in the bigger urbanisations all over the island

Eva recommends Matagorda…

Las Gaviotas in Matagorda are the only apartment complex with a swimming pool hoover (?), disabled aid lets say. They want to concentrate on disabled persons, is close to the Matagorda shopping center, as well with facilities, and close to the beach strip.

An excellent mobility aid service you will have with Island Mobility.

Marc likes Playa Blanca….

The promenade along the coastal path in Playa Blanca is disabled friendly, I have stayed in the Sandos Papagayo Arena a few times and other than the natural elevation changes the walk is flat and very well looked after.
Less than 3 weeks until I visit Lanzarote again!

Carmen from Lanzarote Active…….

Our boat Marine Reserve excursion is an option for disabled people. We had many wheelchair users and even one tetraplegic client on board! Of course, they have to come with their caretaker…

I also know that Nacho is doing trekking excursions with joelettes (transport devices for disabled), but not sure if it´s in English…

Hablas Inglés?

2012-02-10T17:37:56Z

We’ve had Swedish friends here for the last few days and, yet again, I’m astonished that all of them speak perfect English. But then again so do the Italians, Germans, Poles, Rumanians and Spanish people we’ve met in Lanzarote. I know I’ve touched on this before in my blog, but why are we Brits so bad at speaking other languages? Why does everyone else learn English and then go on to speak it but many Brits who learn a language at school are reluctant to use it?

I think my own experience of learning languages is exceptional because we had 2 years of French at primary school. And this was in the 60s! I can remember learning carols in French which we performed at a Christmas concert when I was 10. I had a good vocabulary before I went on to secondary school. There, I carried on with French but then from aged 12, I learned Russian and from 14 also did Latin. I then changed schools for my sixth form and carried French on to A level and did Italian O level at the same time. Since then, we have had many holidays in Greece so I can at least read a menu (the Russian helped here as the alphabet is similar) and say the usual basics in Greek. We had Spanish lessons before our move to Lanzarote and have continued to learn Spanish here.

I think my experience is different because my schools were able to be radical in the languages they taught. Now the National Curriculum (don’t get me started on that!!) has reduced language teaching again so many Brits just don’t learn foreign languages. Of course, there are many that do and Robin and I both have nieces who studied languages at university and are fluent. But, in our experience, even if Brits can speak a foreign language, they don’t. Is this shyness or lack of confidence or is it the knowledge that, in most places you go, everyone else will speak English so you don’t have to bother?

Did you see the English tourists, who had escaped from the nightmare of the wrecked Costa Concordia cruise ship, complaining that no-one in the lifeboat was speaking English? I bet nearly all the crew that dealt with passengers did speak English as that is normally the case on cruise ships.

So why does everyone else speak English? The days of the Empire were not that long ago. When the present Queen’s father was crowned, one quarter of the world was part of the British Empire. It is said that America only became officially English speaking by the narrowest of majorities when put to the vote in Congress. How different would the world have been if America had voted to be Spanish speaking?

Surely it is with the development of the internet that English once again became the foremost language of the world. Robin will always remind people that Tim Berners-Lee, a Brit, developed the world wide web and then it was visionary Americans (all English speaking) like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates who brought computers and the internet to the world. So the language of the world in technology and commerce is once again dominated by English.

We know of several groups of friends who hail from different parts of the world and live here in Lanzarote but who all speak English. The Dutch and Scandinavians all seem to speak English, practically as a second language.

Our Swedish friends speak excellent English and one of them reads novels in English and watches British television. She is never stuck for a word and has only a slight Swedish accent. I was amused to hear her describing a power cut that set off all the house alarms. ‘The alarm went off,’ she said, before correcting herself, ‘No, it went on’. It just showed how complex English is but how much she has mastered it. We always joke that she speaks better English than we do!

Perhaps it is because Britain is a secluded island that stops people hearing other languages but in multicultural Britain, surely people are exposed to other peoples’ languages? Lanzarote is certainly multi-cultural and there are people here from all over the world. My message is simple. Come on, you Brits! Give it a go and try a bit of Spanish when talking to the locals here. Yes, they can speak English but it’s not that hard to use a few phrases and words – and get your children to do so too. Vamos a hablar español!

Teguise Campaign Against Abandoned Hotels

2012-02-09T16:13:44Z

Oswaldo Betancort, the Mayor of Teguise is stepping up his campaign to resolve the issues surrounding the abandoned hotel building sites in the resort of Costa Teguise.

He commented on a local radio station that it was unacceptable to go to international tourism fairs to sell our primary resort of Costa Teguise, when the first impression that visitors have is these tombs that we all know.

There are eight plots of land causing concern, these skeleton hotels have been left in an abandoned state for several years causing an eye sore for the resort. The Mayor is planning to hold a series of new meetings with Teguise Council, the Cabildo of Lanzarote and the Canary Islands Government.

The mayor explained that this is a difficult situation, the solution will be to regulate these buildings through the Emergency Law. Each case will have to be studied individually so that they can try to save some of them legally or bring about a change of use so that they can find a solution, in some cases the licenses have expired and are now void.

Noche de preestreno de La amenaza fantasma. Será la noche de este jueves, 09 de febrero, en el multicines Deiland, a las 22:30 horas. Protagonizada por Liam Neeson (Qui-Gon Jinn), Ewan McGregor (Obi-Wan Kenobi) y Natalie Portman (reina Amidala/Padmé), la saga galáctica más conocida regresa en 3D. La República Galáctica se encuentra en desorden. Los impuestos sobre las rutas comerciales hacia los sistemas estelares más lejanos están en juego. La avariciosa Federación del Comercio ha detenido todo envío de mercancías al pequeño planeta Naboo, cerrando las rutas con numerosas naves de batalla.
