Majorca holiday

No, I have not changed sides from the Scandinavian to the Mediterranean team. Below are a couple of shots I took on our short holiday to Majorca. It was a rather spontaneous trip and we only just got back this afternoon. I thought I would quickly sign in to say hello as I haven't been online all week.

I was actually pleasantly surprised at how pretty the Island is. When thinking of Majorca I had the perception of crowded beaches with drunken teenagers on one side and hordes of retirees on the other. 
There certainly is that aspect, but you can find some really beautiful spots off the beaten track. 

I love spending time as a family when on holiday and particularly seeing my husband wind down from his job to really enjoy the boys' company.

We purchased some beautiful art prints in a remote little village - I will share those with you as soon as I have them framed. 

Tschüss...

    Lovely pictures, make me want to hop on a plane to Majorca and enjoy the sun. I really like the island especially in February, March when the cherry trees bloom and all the little villages are so pretty. Have you been to the market in Arta or Pollenca? They're really nice...

    See you in BYW class. Cheers

    Oh wow, taking a short break can be so great, especially in winter time (although it is supposed to be spring now). And these pictures make me long for our holiday in France this summer!!!!!
    Hugs, Iris
