What incredible photography! Mallorca is now whispering in my ear. Shhh! I have work to do.
I visited Mallorca some time ago now and just loved it. I found it not unlike parts of Australia & I guess I liked that because I'd been away from home for more than 12mths. There was something about it that was welcoming. It was a comfortable visit with a family I was Nanny for & we stayed in a luxurious apartment in Puerto de Andratx and from there explored the area. Thanks for igniting some strong memories! :-)
Oh! I love visiting places that offers breathtaking scenic beauty, and when it comes about Mediterranean Sea, there is no escape…I am dying to visit and make my vacation memorable here in Mallorca…

@vera: Thank you
@kirsty: Sounds a relaxing place to visit
@sunita: The Mediterranean makes for some stunning settings
I'd love to do some hiking in Mallorca in the spring or autumn - it sounds like a beautiful island
I was just talking to someone about the Balearic Islands, and they told me that Mallorca is often overlooked because most head for party-time Ibiza. But from your post, I'd much prefer Mallorca. Looks stunning!
I've never been to Spain yet - but this sure is enticing!
@heather: Me too.
@BarbaraW: I'm not into the party islands at all.
@Sherry: It looks fantastic to me too.
