Even hotter and sunnier in Port de Pollença
Today we were shadowed everywhere

Wednesday – Chopin and Platja des Trenc
8.4 km 13,239 steps
The terrace garden used by Chopin and George Sand in the old monastery in Valldemosa.
Frédéric in a skirt and George in a dress. Not historically accurate as she was the cross-dresser, not him, but probably easier to carry in procession around the village.
Gerhild enjoying the Platja des Trenc in the hot sun but chilly wind.
As it’s January, Kim has the beach to himself.

Mallorca – the plan
The Blog
The Archduke path. Camí de s’Arxiduc.
Es Petit Hotel de Valldemossa.
Museu d’art modern Plaça Porta de Santa Catalina Nº 10, Palma 07012.
Es Baluard lies in a privileged corner of the city of Palma. Situated on Plaça Porta de Santa Catalina at the end of Paseo Mallorca, one of the city’s main arteries, its watchtower commands one of the finest views of the bay of Palma, with the Gothic cathedral and Bellver Castle as reference points. Its location in the centre of town connects it to the city’s other major infrastructures and charming historic district and its proximity to Avenida Jaime III links it to the city’s main commercial street.CAR PARK: Paseo Mallorca, 2 minutes from the Museum.
Hotel’s tips
Thanks to the hotel’s privileged situation, guests can practice hiking on the most beautiful natural paths.
The sea is only 6 km away at the Port de Valldemossa where the sunsets are spectacular and the fish is delicious.
The picturesque villages within the Tramuntana mountain range such as Deià, Soller and Banyalbufar should not be missed and another compulsary visit is the Torrent de Pareis in Sa Calobra. – maybe too wet
