Mallorca

Three weeks ago we went to Mallorca for a small vacation. Beneath are some photos in random order.


The Cathedral in Palma.




Mallorca (Majorca) is a Spanish island in the Mediterranean Sea. It has a population of almost 800 000.


We stayed at Prinsotel.It is a nice hotel by the Alcudia bay next to the Albufera natural park.


We had rooms on the third floor facing the wetlands and could enjoy the sounds of hundreds of birds.



Kristine was a bookworm most of the trip. Here she is trying to hide book two of the Twilight-saga.


Me in Palma.


My daughter is soon outgrowing me.





In the evenings we could go bungee jumping.


More father and daughter.


At Plaza Major.


Overlooking Arta.








Kristine at Alcudia bay.


We rented a car when we got to the airport, and one day we drove out to Formentor. This is, I believe, the most scenic place on the island. This is a photo of the lighthouse.





Kristine and me.

Formentor scenery.


The roads.


One could tumble hundreds of feet down the cliffs.







One evening we drove to Alaro, a small village in the mountains not too far from Inca, to have dinner.
