July 21st - Mallorca

After a few days in Formentera and Ibiza, we're now on the west coast of Mallorca in Soller.  Tomorrow we'll take the vintage train into Palma and see if we can find some mallorcan pearls (Only to look at- Janet assures me...) 

We had a rough night in Ibiza (tucked into a small cove with 10 other boats) when a gale sprung up and we started slipping a little on the anchor - So we took turns on anchor watch and managed to hold our ground till morning when we left for safer waters... The beach and photo's made it all worthwhile. 

We've been on Mallorca for a few days now - quite beautiful.  Spending our time in more secluded bays (Cala's) as opposed to the busy city ports. 

Spain is very different from the US if only due tothe fact that the clocks are all screwy. It's now 10pm and the dinner rush is starting! Kids are playing in the park (Till midnight even). Of course the entire town takes a 3 hour lunch break every day between 2 and 5. 

We plan to syay here for several days and explore inland a bit, before leaving the north side and Menorca.
