Arive and spend day in Majorca Also known as Majorca, this Balearic island is a true Mediterranean paradise. It's deservedly famous for such natural wonders as its golden-sand beaches, tall pine groves and towering cliffs. The landscape is as varied as the northern mountains and the southern flatlands with their almond and olive groves. Among the many must-sees are a Gothic castle, a 13th century cathedral and the former palace of Mallorcan kings.

Just south of the town of Portocristo are the Cuevas del Drach, which are really four caves all connected to each other. This cave however has a large lake in it, called Martel Lake. It's large enough to ride a boat in and to see all the stalactites hanging from the ceiling. It’s a beautiful place ...

The night before all of the guests, Stee and I went to a dance club in Ibiza. We didn't arrive back onboard until close to 7 AM. We then began our cruise to Mallorca, the island just north of Ibiza. The crew had food for those who were hungry, but most of us went straight to bed.

Just after noon, around five hours later, we arrived off the coast of the playa ex pregons gran, a nudist beach just a few ...

... bin ich während dem Herumstöbern im Internet fündig geworden: Auch bei uns in der "Nähe" (jedenfalls verglichen mit der Karibik) gibt es wunderschöne Strände: Beispielsweise der tolle Strand "Es Trenc" in Mallorca. Die Fotos sehen traumhaft aus und bei genauerer Recherche ...

... formations. They are very commercialized, however and don't allow any photography whatsoever... with or without flash. To no great surprise, as you exit the cave there's a stand selling post card collections, CDs and other goods with all the pictures they wouldn't let you take with your own camera. So... I have no pictures of the cave interior.



The cave is about 1.2 kilometers long (about half-a-mile) with four very ...

... stone residences. The talayots are towers made of stone and can be either round or square but nobody knows for sure what their functions were. Some appeared to be watchtowers, others were used for burials, they could have been religious, or they could have had military functions. They also think they might have been status symbols for important families. Or the answer could be D) all of the above.

After returning home to stock the refrigerator I went to Randa. In the middle of the agricultural plains of Mallorca there's a small hill (Puig Randa, 540 meters, 1,771 feet) on which is located the town of Randa. At the top of the hill an old monastery shares space with a forest of radio antennae, the town is further down the hill. I had lunch at the hotel in Randa, explored the town a little, then headed up to the ...

Why I choose Majorca to visit is a ideal question you would ask at first. Simple reason, a friend recommended. The quality he told me about this Island was its weather which remain calm and warm most time of the year. Imagine, its a far more predictable weather if you compare to our typical weather here in UK. Being a Londoner, I always wanted ...

... boats glide through the water one carrying a violinist and a pianist. They play 3 classical songs, light goes on, it's over. The caves are stunning, the formations absolutely breathtakingly beautiful and the lake inside the caves from another world. The "concert" as they would call it had a Phantom of the Opera feel to it. Still I hated being pushed through something so magical like a herd of cows by angry shepherds ...

... office we were told it was €15.00 - for 4 nights - good eh! Andraitx is a small resort popular with Germans. Thus prices are good and standards of service etc in the restaurants is excellent. We decided to take a trip into Palma, by bus, to get the old train from there up the coast, through the mountains to Soller. The trip was brilliant, great scenery, reasonably comfy train and thousands of camera obsessive Germans. We had a great day out except for the bus ...
