Todoque 2002
The main road from Los Llanos to Puerto Naos runs through Todoque village. The road continues right to Puerto Naos. The side road to the left goes to Las Manchas and Jedey (or Chedey). There is a restaurant.
In 2002 there was fork in the road here with a quaint old fashioned bar in the middle with the roads passing on all 3 sides.
The building was demolished and replaced with a roundabout! |

Dark clouds over Las Manchas and a gap where the rays of the sun shine through. As often happens on La Palma, the area to the right (west) was in full sunshine and didn't get a single drop of rain. |
