It's another rainy, cold day in London, and dreaming of warmer places is to be expected!
Nearly a year ago, I left London and met five special ladies in Mallorca for what was to be a truly special week, celebrating our 50th birthday year as a group. As I think back on that time, I realize even more why I enjoyed that time so much: we had a months-long build-up to our meeting, filled with planning and a whirlwind of excited emails, as some of us had not seen one another for many years.
We'd chosen a beautiful home in Soller as our base, one with views out over the town towards the port, and the weather was predicted to be perfect. Here are some images that show just how idyllic a time it was.
While there we took things at a leisurely pace: we planned to so things as a group, but usually chose to do whatever came to mind on the spur of the moment out of the list of things we had listed as "must-dos." This made for a relaxed time, with little pressure, which was absolutely perfect --
I will hold it as one of my favorite vacations.

| Views like this kept us going on the hill climbs to Deia by bike! |

| Agapanthus, daisies and baby olives make a pretty arrangement. |

ReplyDeleteIt was a marvelous week! My favorite memories are the morning & evening views of Soller from the house,our sail and other explorations, and the great food and laughs.... And I'll never forget the driving and parking, which we would not have managed without you, Lisa!
