Majorca Oct 2013...to be completed....

We've been away in Majorca for a week, a week before booking and planning and the week before that a bit mad. Anyway, back refreshed but freezing in the horrible early British winter. Early as in 2-3 degrees for early Nov......too soon.
Majorca was not Goa weather, the temperature was 22-23 degrees, too cold to swim in the sea but for us, fine.
 This is the Balearic Sea, from Cala Esmeralda. We walked to look for the beach, but ended up at this rocky path which led to a diving station. Sat there for a bit and enjoyed the stunning views.

Lots happened, there was a storm with our hotel apartment flooded, as a result of which we were given this gorgeous room/suite overlooking the beach. Below is the view from the children's bedroom window.



This is another view of the beach a minute from our hotel, Cala Gran, from the icecream shop. Majorca is expensive, like the Canaries, I assume its because its an island, or maybe just touristy prices. Never been to mainland Spain to compare.


Our hotel in Cala D'Or shut for the season end Oct so we moved to Playa De Palma Iberostar for a bit. This is the stunning Playa de Palma, the length reminded me of the Caandolim-Calangute-Baga stretch, but a deep green/bright blue sea and white sand. 100 m from our hotel.
Another beach pic, there are loads more but need to block out the kids faces before I put them on.

Very beautiful, very scenic, very touristy, very lovely salads and a must see!

Next post on just how cheap it was for us :)
