Blue Bay Palma

And at long last we are on our way ... can't quite believe we are actually starting this journey after all the work, planning, talking .... And we know we've been to San Telmo many times before but this time it is different!! And so good to have Simon's old friends Max & Linsey onboard - after all they were really the people responsible for him ending up in Port d'Andratx to begin with.

... br>We ended up going to a large club in the center of the city. It was probably the largest club that I've ever seen. This place was huge! I ended up dancing with the girls until about 4 am when I was beginning to get very sleepy and returned to the yacht. I didn’t bring my cell phone and when I got back the passarelle was raised up to prevent anyone from getting aboard. There is always a Duty Officer on duty and part of their job to welcome and ...

We arrived in Cala de Calobra around 5:30. We anchored in the small bay and took a tender to shore. The little village has a small pier along one side of a steep hill and the village is crowded on the hillside raising between two much larger and steeper hills. The whole thing looks like some Hollywood set because of its idyllic setting on the small bay. There are several bars and restaurants where we got drinks and ate an early dinner.

... lunch was served buffet style on the main deck so everyone could eat at their leasure and were it was the most convenient for them. <br><br>Waterskiing is very exhausting and after a few hours of playing on the water, the crew loaded everything up and we headed down to coast to the small village of sa Calobra on the Cala de Calobra.

... us off and then returned to the yacht go continue on their way. Usually the crew will setup an area on the beach with a canopy, beverages, and a few lounge chairs, but since none of that would fit on the heli, it was just us a change of close, beach towels a few drinks and sunscreen. <br><br>We weren&#8217;t nearly as hyper on the beach today as we were in Formentera. Today, everyone just strolled around the ...

After a 35 minute flight from Girona I landed in Mallorca, the largest of the Balearic Islands. Since leaving Malta six days I&#8217;ve been on the go and hadn&#8217;t any time to relax, which Mallorca would be perfect for over the next 4 nights. The island is much greener than Malta and has much longer and larger sandy beaches; it&#8217;s no wonder why it&#8217;s one of the top destinations for European holiday goers, especially the Germans ...

... the bus back, without finding a laundrette! got back and had a swim in the hotel pool. didn´t stop in long, it was quite cold. got warm again then went to the internet cafe to book the next stage of the trip. had dinner in the hotel, all you can eat buffet again, plus a free bottle of wine, bonus!

Today, I finally booked my ticket out of Mallorca and into Sevilla. I got a direct flight which is better than waiting 5 hours in the Barcelona airport which is what I thought was going to happen. I spent most of the day working and resting up, taking small breaks to sit in the sun. I taught Alex (I am still trying to decide whether to nickname him Gimpy or Hopper because of his bum leg) how to make fish in a lemon white wine sauce and we ate it along with ...

i visit spain so often but I had my first trip there at the tender age of about 8 months! haha! <br><br>needless to say I can't remember that particular trip but the subsequent ones really hit the spot with me! <br><br>I love Majorca because it has something for everybody. Mad nightlife, beautiful beaches and scenery, lovely people and not as "high rise" as main land Spain.<br><br>
