A new year, 2012 - still winter in this part of the world of course, so I think it's a good idea to recapture some lovely Mallorcan sunshine!
This post continues the day trip to Soller - busy narrow streets ........
Aboard the tram for the short downhill trip to Port Soller.
The journey
Beautiful Port Soller viewed from the road to the lighthouse. We didn't make the lighthouse as conditions were just too hot for anything so arduous as a lengthy uphill climb!
Once the photos were taken, we headed back down to the beach and immersed ourselves in the welcoming sea.
Happy New Year everyone. x

Here there are the long awaited Mallorcan photos to cheer us up on this cold and blustery night ... isn't the wind howling tonight ... I wouldn't want to be out at sea tonight. Lovely, lovely photos Lesley ... see you soon x
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you Lesley - enjoy that sun.
ReplyDeleteThanks Carolyn, yes what a wind - my garden fence has developed an unhealthy list to starboard!! Bye for now. x
ReplyDeleteHi Jill, best wishes for health and happiness in 2012. x

Beautiful isn't it.... I really could have stayed for longer!!
ReplyDeleteHave just returned from a bracing walk along Porthmeor Beach and around The Island (St Ives Head), pushed along by gale force winds. The sights were equally spectacular, albeit in a different way - a continuous manifestation of nature's energy and power. x
Well timed Lesley - I can feel the sun on my face! xxxxx
ReplyDeleteMe too Diane x
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Lesley.
ReplyDeletethank you for the information about the trigger fish, interesting as it is new to us, never even heard of one before.
Oh it is lovely to see your holiday photographs and blue sky and sunshine. It is blowing a gale here, sounds like the roof is coming off, wind bittery cold.
Hope you have a good 2012.
Best wishes, millyx
All the best for 2012 Milly, thanks. x

ReplyDeleteI loved Soller and the trams! And your lovely photos brought it all back. And that sun made me feel warm for a few minutes!

Libby, it was a wonderful trip - and the water was lovely. x
ReplyDeleteLesley, That must have been a wonderful trip. Quite a different sea than the one you are used to in Cornwall. It's been a long time since I have seen any ocean at all. It must be a lovely life by the sea!
ReplyDeleteHi Jeri, yes, life beside the sea is lovely - never like to be too far away from it. x
