an escape to lay in the sun under lush green palm trees that gently sway in a warm breeze, as opposed to trees shedding their red and golden leaves in the growing ever - more - chilly wind...
spending mornings overlooking the pool and lake which was surrounded by palms....
palms so heavily laden with dates....never seen so many!
afternoons spent mooching....places like the old town, with its colourful streets...
and old buildings...even a castle....
a market was taking place around the castle with stalls bursting with glorious bright colours....
gorgeous ceramics....
strings of fresh peppers like I have never seen before....
olives of every shape, colour and variety you could dream of...
the market was a true mediterranean feast for the eyes....
as was the beach....
beautiful clear warm turquoise waters to swim in.....
not Cyprus this time....but beautiful, scenic Majorca.....
even the views seen from the plane were stunning....
first sprinkling of snow seen over the mountains....way more of that to be seen shortly thats for sure!
seven of us travelled for a 'relaxing' break and what a fab time was had, enjoyed one or two cocktails and with such a vast array of different food to try its now time for me to concentrate on the pre-Christmas diet!!
now, can I avoid a bacon sarnie this morning????? well I am feeling the cold.....
