Hotel Estoril Porto Colom

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 ...

... 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 ...

... ich heraus, dass Es Trenc mit neun Kilometer der längste Strand in Mallorca ist! Auch die Flüge sind nicht besonders teuer, jedenfalls verkraftbar mit meinem Budget. Noch muss der Chef die Ferien "bewilligen", doch schon bald werde ich meinem Traum ein Stück näher sein... Adios!

... In addition to the truly impressive stalactite/stalagmite formations which absolutely cover the cave for its full length there are underground lakes that are crystal clear. The largest of these lakes is in the last and largest chamber. The lake is 177 meters (580 ft.) long by 40 meters (131 ft.) wide by 30 meters (98 ft.) deep. That makes it one of the largest subterranean lakes in the world. For the entire length of the cave ...

... all around these buildings which I found kind of surprising. Archeologists have worked on these sites but little is known of the residents.<br><br>And this was the only place I went today. I had other stuff to do (laundry, shopping... pretty boring stuff) The roads getting down here were mostly little one-lane country roads. The only problem was that those one-lane roads carried two-way traffic ...

... on too late (she should have been asleep. I guess it never occurred to them that whoever saw her lights and criticized her wasn't asleep, either.). She was criticized for wanting to live on the edge of the village (obviously she had something to hide). Apparently she couldn't take it any more when she got annoymous letters accusing her of coming to the area for the sole purpose of acquiring a young man to return with her ...

... It has exotic bars and night-outs you will ever imagine and you don't feel lonely anywhere. All in all it was a wonderful trip, you can check the weather information on http://www.majorcainspain.co.uk/weather .html and see if this is the time to go. Happy traveling, any questions, don't hesitate to ask, I will be more than happy to answer.

... the security guy to pass snap a picture myself, just for the sake of it. It's sad how this natural wonder was converted into a simple money making machine, like so much nowadays. A scenic road brings me to Portocolom, I enjoy sitting at the terrace overlooking the harbor, what I don't enjoy is the average tasting, overpriced, tiny portion of pasta. Time to get back to finish my book that I had left at a cliffhanger...

... from Palma to Andraitx in the rush hour, driven by Fernando Alonso's irresponsible younger brother. A frightening, **** ache of a trip. While in Andraitx we met up with Paul and Pauline who spotted that Tiercel came from Tarbert. They know the village well and Paul, a scallop diver, frequently works there. There boat was also in Andraitx and they were getting ready to head further down the Med. Over a few wee drams we discovered that we had a number of friends and ...
