Ola Apartamentos Cecilia 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.

... one you shouldn’t miss if you ever make it to Mallorca.

None of my pics looked very good so, instead of posting my bad pics, below is the link the caves website. Their pics are much better than mine and also show the boats on the underwater lake. http://www.cuevasdeldrach.com/

... waded around in the surf or fell back to sleep on the beach. It was good to get rehydrated after all the alcohol and dancing from last night. It was a nice relaxing afternoon with a beautiful beach view with several other yachts in the bay and a parade of nude or topless people walking by.

One of the girls met a guy on the beach. They spent a few hours chatting and getting to know each other. It was ...

Es Trenc - Traumstrand im Süden von Mallorca Schon immer war ich fasziniert von den karibischen Stränden mit weissem Sand und dem schön blauen, klaren Wasser - leider konnte ich mir bis jetzt noch nie einen Flug leisten, auch für das Hotel hätte es wohl nie gereicht. Doch ...

... in the lake. One of the boats has a group of four muscians in it - two violins, one cello and a small organ - that play classical music as oarsmen very slowly row their boats around the lake. When the 10-15 minute concert is over the lights are turned back on and the group is invited to either walk out of the cave or you can get in one of the rowboats to be rowed to the other end of the lake where you get out and walk the rest of the way.

... these buildings which I found kind of surprising. Archeologists have worked on these sites but little is known of the residents.



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... plus ...

... to see the monastery.



There's an interesting story that sheds light on the thinking and attitudes of at least some of the people in this rural area. Not far north of Randa is the little hamlet of Pina. In the 1980's a single, female British anthropologist came to Mallorca to research rural communities. She lived in Pina for several months. It seems she didn't quite fit in. She was criticized for having her ...

... run away from the rat-race. So I booked my flight on easy jet and left in the past summer. Its a Island of most relaxed people on earth, when you go from London like city you will feel that more than other, even sometime you will wonder why they are so relaxed and so fun loving. As a single, I find Palma De Mallorca the most hang-out able ...

... For the way back you have two options, either walk out or take a trip on the boat. The boat sounds cool so I stand on line to get on it. Just to notice that after only a few feet later you have to get off it again, well the lake isn't that long. On the way out an older men snaps a picture and gets yelled at really bad by one of the security staff (I can't call them guides, since they didn't guide anything). I wait ...
