re: The Mallorca Squad

Just got into Port De Mallorca.
Lovely spot! If anyone's around for a drink we're here for three nights before heading East.

Off out now to try these famous burgers I've heard about!

Best regards,
Simon

re: The Mallorca Squad

Simon, the best, and cheapest, ice cream in town is right across the street from the gate.

PS, don't bother with the burger place next to the ice cream place.

re: The Mallorca Squad

The Clinic I work out of in Palma is on the 5th floor of a building. The top. Whenever the work overloads and requires a change of scenery, I just walk out onto the terrace and enjoy the view of the mountains and the city.

Oh you have no idea of the trouble when I open the door to the elements. I have to redirect the A/C !!
Yes.... in all honesty Salty, it has been known to see an appreciative tear in my eye from time to time for the fortunate circumstances that allow me to use the place.........
i dont miss Florida at all.

re: The Mallorca Squad

Florida is not a state; its a raft. Dig down with a shovel 3 feet and you hit salt water.

Texas is a state
Virginia is a state
Alaska is a state
California is an altered state.

re: The Mallorca Squad

! was going to go sailing this afternoon. Liquid lunch, looked at this scene...


Then moved over to this part of the bar/restaurant and we all carried on drinking.......



It became slightly overcast...... and we decided to see if it cleared up.....
We took the advice from the statue and switched to Bacardi...... Tomorrow is not going to be good.......

re: The Mallorca Squad

Well we could only spend a few nights in Palma but wow, what a city.

Honestly I'm really impressed, loved every moment of it.

Great food, bars, shopping, beaches, friendly people.

Wish I could have stayed longer.

re: The Mallorca Squad

Simon, if you have all the time in the world, stay longer in the places you enjoy.

If you are tight on budget, there are less expensive places than the Balearics.

Fair winds...
