We have your blog bookmarked and refer to it before the day's ride when we are covering the same ground. You were the inspiration for our plan to cycle here, and we are so glad you blazed the trail for us. Mallorca is a really special place.

Al and I are so glad that you are enjoying the cycling on Mallorca. You'll find those nice paved roads edged with dry stone walls all over the island. At Porto Cristo we found the caves to be surprisingly impressive, and the tour was very tastefully done. It's fun to read your posts, and reassuring to know that cycling on Mallorca is still special. Looking forward to reading more!

One of my favorites from down here, a white asphodel. There’s a yellow variety you’ll see also.

Since Dodie doesn't have a phone, just the GPS which is only a phone technically, she still has a paper list magneted on the fridge. This, and the pen to cross off items as purchased, and the reusable shopping bags are a necessary part of all her grocery expeditions.

Well, you're one step ahead of us since we never even noticed the flags or the country names. Well done.

I rarely forget my phone. I almost always forgot the paper list when I used one.

Ha! I know a very little about a whole lot of stuff. Learning more following bike touring journals! If only I could remember half. Kind of like a salt lake that gets half an inch deep when it rains, but the water is soon all gone.

I know nothing... Just looked at all the boats almost alike and every one with a national flag like you said.
