Ladies and gentlemen ( above all gentlemen )..... WELCOME to Palma de Mallorca !!!
A patio in a small street of Palma
An expresso..... What else ? An ensaimada, of course !!!!
La Almudaina Royal Palace ..... Palma
So refreshing after a long walk in the streets of Palma
George Sand+ Frederic Chopin = Valdemossa
The Soller vintage train ( however a bit expensive )
On board of the wooden train
The mallorcan countryside seen from the train
Shortly before arriving in Soller, the train stops at a peak overlooking the village
Everybody gets out of the train and takes the same pic!!!
Porto Soller
Porto Soller beach ( vintage tramway at the background )
At the top of Porto Soller
Alcudia, here i am !!!! I stayed two days in this medieval walled town
before taking a ship to Menorca
The medieval ramparts have been carefully restored
The remparts of Alcudia
A selfie on Alcudia beach . My neighbour was gorgeous but so so straight!!!!
Pollensa beach
On the road again....... I liked the light .... And the idea of moving to another place.
Something new to discover.... I am a traveller, not a tourist
I am in Menorca now.... In the very quiet city of Ciutadella whose cathedral is beautiful
The Placa d’es Born is the most picturesque square in Ciutadella
The port ..... A good place to have a drink before dinner
El ayutamiento de Ciutadella..... como dicen en Espana
Ah !!!!! Las calas inMenorca !!!!! Crystal waters , wild scenery... This is cala
Macarelleta, my favourite ( so bad i am not the only one to like it )
After a 15mn walk from the road, you can find that kind of thing!!
I am sure Keith Richards would enjoy that beach too...
Will have to ask him next time we meet !
Keep on walking, baby!!!! And you will see this cala! La Cala Turqueta
Well..... It's time for me to swim a bit and enjoy la cala Macarelleta
On my way back to civilization
I met a friend
Mahon, the capital city of Menorca
Mahon ( Mao in catalan )
Trepuco is a talayotic settlement situated near Mahon.
They date back to the late second millennium and early first millennium BC
