Alle Betten belegt!

Gestern Abend sind Corne und Wolfgang zu uns gekommen und jetzt sind alle Betten belegt. Heute sind wir in Lluc gewandert und Wolfgang hat danach das Hobie kayak ausprobiert. Jetzt kocht Sallie uns ein interessantes Abendessen das fantastisch riecht. Wir genießen Mallorca.

Port Soller

The weather improved and today was dry with some sunny intervals. We went for a hike around Port Soller, followed by a nice sea food lunch. Our guests had to take the tram to Soller of course.

Things to do in the rain

We have a second day of rain, but the weather is supposed to improve this afternoon. Yesterday we drove out to Cap Formentor, today Sallie and Juerg are renting bicycles to ride along Palma Beach (they are from Vancouver after all!). Sheila and I are in the cappuccino group.

New visitors

My parents and Andrea have left, we had one day alone and now friends of ours from Vancouver joined us. The weather is mixed, but we enjoyed a nice day in Palma today, including a long lunch.

Another nice day

It is mostly sunny and warm, very enjoyable. Yesterday we went on a 7.5km hike around Lluc, today we used the paddle boards. Andrea got so hot that she went for a swim, and Sheila joined her. A bit too cold for me at a water temperature of 19 degrees, but fun to watch.

Hike around the Soller Valley

We went for a hike around the Soller Valley today, starting in Port de Soller and going up the mountains to the north of it through beautiful terrassed olive and orange groves. The reward was a nice lunch in town. The weather was warm and sunny today, good enough to take the paddle boards out in the afternoon.

Besuch in Mallorca

Nach viel Regen in Mallorca im Oktober ist das Wetter seid unserer Ankunft durchweg freundlich. Gestern sind Mutti und Papa uns besuchen gekommen und heute haben wir einen Ausflug nach Port d’Alcudia gemacht, inklusive einem wunderschönen Fischessen. Morgen kommt Andrea noch dazu, mal sehen wie das mit dem Bergwandern gehen wird.

Back in Mallorca

We flew to Mallorca today and moved back into our usual winter quarters. The island is still very busy and the weather today was very windy with rain showers, about 17 degrees. Good enough to go for a walk on the beach and the forecast for next week is sunshine. We look forward to that!

Waldspaziergang

Von London sind wir für ein paar Tage nach Siegelbach gekommen. Das Wetter war erst sehr kalt und naß, aber gestern war es trocken und wir haben die Gelegenheit für einen Waldspaziergang genutzt. Die Blätterfärbung ist sehr schön und wir genießen den Spätherbst.
