Mallorca
2018
We
couldn't have chosen a better week for this winter break. Edinburgh
was badly hit by a Siberian snow storm and we left the day after the
airport re-opened and skipped all the aftermath, perfect timing
indeed!

Bye bye snowy Edinburgh! |
As
usual we were looking for a warm place to stock up some vitamin D and
do some hiking and cycling, we were not disappointed, I could have
done with some more vitamin D but overall it was a brilliant place to
explore.
We
stayed in Palma, at the Hotel Zurbarán and were impressed by the
size of the city. The Hotel was a bit far away from the train and bus
station, which meant a good 7km walk every day (sometimes 14) just to
get there and back. The walk itself was quite nice though and it gave
us a good opportunity to explore new streets everytime we walked it.
On a positive note we were 5 min away from the castle and its huge
park. If we will ever go again we will definitely choose a place
close to the Plaza Espanya!
