Long hike with lots of wind

Val took Maike, Sheila and me on a long hike yesterday across the Mola d´ Esclop. It was very windy again and quite cold. The area suffered a large forest fire a few years ago and while it has become green again, there was a lot of windfall from old burned tress that blocked some of the path. The landscape is very dramatic and we have up to now not hiked much in the southern part of the island, so this was great.

A great hike!

Ulrike, Sheila and I left before 9am this morning and went to Lluc to hike up to the Coll de Prat. The weather was nice and sunny, but above 900 m there was snow and ice. The pass is 1,200m high and there was a bitter cold wind. The views were outstanding and after a 15km hike a beer in the sun tasted very good.

Ulrike ist bei uns für eine Woche und zunächst war das Wetter gar nicht mehr so gut. Heute war es zwar kalt, aber sonnig und wir sind in der Gegend von Lluc 15 km gewandert. Hinterher hatten wir guten Appetit zum mallorquinischen Mittagessen.

Sheila came back yesterday and today we joined a German group for a hike to the necropolis at the public estate Son Real. This is not far from us, but we had never been there. For many centuries, the necropolis was the grave yard for the upper classes on the island, today there are empty graves with a view. The weather was great, and of course we went for a long lunch afterwards.

Sheila left for Manchester and I will be alone in Mallorca for a few days. Time to play golf and deal with a few other things I have not had time for up to now. Tonight was a beautiful sunset, the forecast for this week is sunshine but cold (8-12 degrees Celsius max).

After all the guests have left, we now have some time for our Mallorcan friends. Today, sixteen of us met for lunch at our place after church. The weather was perfect, everybody brought something and we had a great time.

We wish all a happy and blessed new year 2019. We celebrated into it with Jenkins who are staying close by. Today we have calm and sunny weather, a teaser for the calmas de enero, which usually occur in the middle of January. Sheila took the kayak for a spin to enjoy the weather.
