... the small harbor. While the British occupied the island, they passed on their tradition of distilling juniper berries and to this day, Menorcan gin is prized.
After checking out the town square and walking around for a bit, we found a nice bar to get drinks in and tried the Menorcan gin. We returned to the boat for dinner and then hit the town again after dinner for more drinks and a place to hang out, people watch and relax.
Far de Favaritx is on the very northeast tip of the Menorca. There is a light house out on the very tip of cape and from the landscape it’s obvious that this area gets a lot of wind, heavy surf and storms.
We didn’t stop here or go ashore, but the weather was calm enough to take the helicopter up and get a scenic view of this part of the island. With the arid Mediterranean climate, the cliffs and the rocky coastline, it reminded me of parts of the California coast ...
... be fewer dishes to choose from, nothing served from the kitchen and all the food will be low carb and low fat. Also, since the crew already knows what we prefer to eat at breakfast—only those foods are made and put out.
While guests are aboard, things are completely different. There will always be a lot of fresh fruit all cut up and arranged nicely. There will always be a selection of breads and a selection of pastries, and there will always be the ...

... found a shockingly large amount of pottery, which all dates to Roman occupation around 125-50 BC. It´s amazing how much was there considering how long it has been. It was all right below the surface as well. My find of the week was a beautifully etched black varnished shard of some kind of plate. Sadly, because we were excavating a trench filled, presumably, with trash, none of the pottery was complete ...
Ciudadela, Balearic Islands, Spain and Canary Islands celliott76... We explored the town the next morning and had a good coffee at a little cafe overlooking the harbour. Back to the boat and cast off for a short sail around the Island to another little bay where we would stay for another night before jumping across to Mallorca (our favourite Island). The bay was deserted and we tucked into a cove and again watched thunderstorms all around us.
Fornells, Balearic Islands, Spain and Canary Islands bellavita... currently excavating a defensive ditch. This mainly consists of digging it out ourselves while keeping an eye out for pottery shards. Apparently, the locals filled the ditch with dirt and trash when the Romans military left. Today, I learned how to use a pick axe. The normal image of archaeologists carefully brushing off intricate stone carvings does not apply to our current work ...
Ciudadela, Balearic Islands, Spain and Canary Islands celliott76The beautiful holiday I ever had, despite the rainy weather and some jellyfishes when the weather was sunny. In Cala Ratjada there are a lot of beautiful beaches and a pretty "promenade" where you can find a lot of nice tapas bars if you want to eat something. Here you are some of my pictures... have fun.
Cala Ratjada, Balearic Islands, Spain and Canary Islands laura.pirovano... dan komt de wind in de zeilen en maken we snelheid. Als we uit de Cala zijn zien we de verschillende kapen. We hebben nog twee uur te gaan naar de Cala Vincente die aan de oostkant ligt. Voor ons zien we grote partijen loodzware wolken die alleen maar regen voorspellen. Maar als we achterom kijken dan zien we dat we worden ingehaald door een gigantische bui. We zien de zwarte wolken tegen de kapen omhoog kruipen en de regen die hieruit ontwikkelt doet alles in een nevel ...
Fornells, Spain psteerenberg... 4 km far away from Ciudadella. MACARELLA AND MACARELLETA COVES Coves of special beauty due to the turquoise water and white sand .
