Wednesday, 25, Morning

Breakfast on deck in Santa Ponça harbor, before leaving for Port D’Andratx, where we will dock for one or two nights while exploring by car.

The coast of Mallorca is pure rock – with authentic pirate caves along the water line.

But the top of the rocks are now covered with vacation homes, waterfront, but far from beachfront. Look at the size of the little white boat at the bottom of the picture – and the building crane above. I think these cranes are now the most common sight along the Mallorcan coast. (We later saw almost these same shots on Spanish TV in a story about Green Peace's list of 15 ecological disasters in Spain)

We arrived in Port D’Andratx at around 1:00 – to find that there was no internet connection at the yacht club there either !?!

Jane: Thank you for keeping us posted on your magical trip to Baleares. Hopefully we`ll be heading to Buenos Aires next Wednesday and then to Machu Pichu. I have downloaded the information Ralph posted on The Miami Travel Bogspot on Buenos Aires and hope the time we have scheduled is enough to see the main areas.
I had aimed for Europe this year, maily because is my 50th. birthday.. I guess Buenos Aires is the closest to Europe I will get in 2008.
