Palma de Mallorca
Palma is a bussy and historic city. The Cathedral was closed for the rest of the day when we arrived and we had to get used to the strange day rhythm of the Spanish. It seems that they only sleep during the day and prefer to eat and party while the rest of us sleep. The solution is -as often is the case- simple: why don't the Spanish turn back the clock let's say an hour or 3. So they can enjoy breakfast at 7 (=10), lunch at noon (=3 pm) and dinner at 6 (=9 pm) like the civilized world...
I guess we're stuck with it for the moment and have no real alternative then to adjust (a little) to their way of "life" ... :-)
Anyway I had fun shopping around and seeing the sites. It turns out that Mallorca is actually owned by Germany and that half of the German population is living here. (The new West -or should we say South? - Germany one could argue)
With the proceeds of the market I cooked a ratatouille or as they say here pisto manchego
