We had intended to book a week in the Port Mahon Hotel but were overtaken by events, the Hotel is still up and running but is it in your pic I wonder ?

Slight change to the itinerary - as we will be passing, and Meg wants to call in, we will now stop at Palma Mallorca.

Please make the most of this extra stop !

I've been to Palma, three times, as far as I can remember. The first time was pre digital, so my pics of Palma itself are in the loft. However, on the other trips we did the train ride to Soller and an excursion to the Caves of Drach. Not much in the way of scenic photography for the cave trip, but I liked the coach we travelled on

There are subtle differences between the way we are each posting our pics and the software limit is actually two ...

Odd but D63 is now on the case :clap:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We have also enjoyed a number of holidays on this Island over many years, staying in Cala San Vincente else Puerto Pollensa mainly so Soller and indeed Port Soller provide happy memories ... those pics are all on prints.

Hope you've all enjoyed our extra stop in Palma.

Now we are off to Ibiza, mooring in Ibiza Town which we can do being a smaller ship.

Time to relive those hedonistic days of your youth.

Are you paying for a powered wheelchair then, it's far too steep for me to push my wife's wheelchair.

:( :( :(

We were due to visit Ibiza for the very first time on our Aurora cruise in October so we were really looking forward to a new port. Unfortunately we have made the decision not to pay the balance so that's another cruise down the plughole. :(

Lots of photos, please, so that I can see what I'm missing.

Since this is a virtual cruise you can borrow my virtual butler to push.
