The Magic of Majorca
The sun was shining and we couldn't wait to make a splash in the fabulous pool! There was a great aqua aerobic class that we joined in with every morning.
It was down tot he harbour where our boat was waiting for us. Heading up to the
top deck for the best views we were soon speeding off along the rocky coastline
of Santa Ponsa. The views were
breathtaking and to our amazement we were able to catch sight of dolphins just
a short distance away from us. We were absolutely delighted and couldn't
believe our luck; it was such a beautiful sight. The music on board was
fantastic and got us all in the party mood, we sang and clapped along with some
of the other passengers making it a fabulous atmosphere. 
A sightseeing day was the plan for today and we caught a bus to Palma, the capital
city of Majorca. It is famous for its rich history as well as a
vibrant culture that attracts numerous tourists from all over the world. There
was a small market and many boutique shops to explore as we walked down the
cobbled streets taking in the sheer beauty of it all. In the heart of the city
stands the magnificent 14th century cathedral known as La Seu and, as the most
emblematic building in the capital. It was impossible to miss this imposing
golden sandstone building and is one of Europe's tallest Gothic structures. It
is perched above Parc de la Mar and a superb sight for those arriving by sea.
We enjoyed lunch in a delightful café before exploring the old street, spotting
old buildings. 
The evening entertainment at the hotel was 1st class. From quizzes and games to traditional Spanish flamenco dancing. We were always the first on the dance floor showing off our disco moves.
