We took a day trip to explore Mt. Teide and ride the cable car to the top of the mountain. Mt. Teide, a volcano with a summit of 12,198 ft.is the highest point in Spain. The ride up to the top was an adventure. At the starting point the weather is so nice you could be in shorts. Within an hour we experienced very cold temperatures, intermittent fog and there was quite a bit of ice as you reached the top of the mountain. The cable car was not running due to extreme conditions at the top.
