MAJORCA - A LOVELY SUNNY ISLAND TO SPEND YOUR HOLIDAYS

  Valldemossa village is located in the Tramutana range hills, about 17 km from Palma. There was beautiful green view of mountains everywhere and a lovely village to visit to do some shopping and sightseeing. We went to see the statue that was made for Saint Catalina Thomas, she was born in 15th century in the village of Valldemossa.                                                                                            We stayed in Cala d'or and Santanyí, the beach above was closest to our holiday home. There was clear blue water and sandy beaches surrounded by beautiful nature.  Cala Figuera. One of the bays we visited during a boat trip that started from Santanyí and took us to see many lovely beaches and landscapes. Mondrago natural park is just beautiful. We went for a hike and stopped to meditate and to do some yoga at the top of the hill surrounded by the waves.      Nice way to spend time in the evening.                       Cold Gaspazo soup

MY BABY-SHOWER PARTY WITH ALICE IN WONDERLAND THEME

Image
What a wonderful surprise it was when we arrived to our friend's house for a barbecue party with my sister who is also pregnant for her second child. We had no idea that there was a beautiful baby-shower party organized for us inside. We choose the path to our friend's house that went from the other side so that we missed the mysterious signs leading to her house and giving some hints of the theme of the party - Alice in wonderland. We saw only one big sign in front of the house at the porch before entering to the silent house. Then, SURPRISE our friends, mother and cousin appeared from the kitchen and the living room was full of life. It was a baby-shower party for us and our soon to be born babies. We where totally surprised about this wonderful party that had also a lovely tea-party theme.    Me and my surprised sister with diaper cakes that where full of lovely surprises for our babies too. A beautiful hat cake made by our friends. Some goodies offered
