This summer I cruised to the Canary Islands by the

Yeoward Line, but it is really a winter trip. The charm of- Lisbon, Madeira, Las Palmas, Teneriffe, Santa Cruz and Oratava need not be described to Spectator readers, but perhaps it is not sufficiently realized what an inexpensive trip this is... Three weeks' cruising in the South Atlantic for thirty-five guineas is as good value as there is to be found among all the itineraries Of all the 'argosies that await our pleasure. ' * * * * -
