Raining in Mallorca
Our Mallorca trip finally came to an end this month. It was a sheer 20 days of rain, joy, carnage and pain. Oh, and a bunch of other ‘things’ that went down. Our entire family was on this trip: Mom, Dad, Sissy, dorko the brother and of course me. We also had some friends, who were also travelling staying at nearby 4 Star Hotels Mallorca offers. We would either drop by to see them or visa-versa. That’s not an easy accomplishment since our itinerary’s were completely different, but somehow we managed.
There is a tremendous amount of words that could sum up the trip, but the ones that stand out the most are: amazing spots, rain, villa, motorbikes, rain, guitars, cute girls and more rain. The trip was 20 days long, but that included our ‘travel’ days. Basically, there were really only 17 days, with no flights involved. Seems like a lot, but not when it’s raining for 8 of those days! The locals we hooked up with for fun spots said that it never rains like how much rain we were experiencing in Mallorca. They said that maybe over a 16-day period at that time of the year it would rain two times, but never 4 days in a row, like what we were experiencing. The only thing positive that can be said about the poor weather is that when the sun did come out, everyone was amped. We went and did everything we could like we were on speed. I went skating at our first spot and the rest of my family went shopping or hung out at the beach.
As I mentioned, it rain way too much. My dorko brother’s antics was to rent two motorbikes within a span of four days, and we had to ride them in the rain and it was a cold rain. We weren’t sure he was going to make it one night. The villa , a massive piece of land which had two houses on it, that accommodated sixteen, we ran in to some more travelling friends which we shared the two houses. I wouldn’t have thought that a small island like that would have had much stuff, but it did during the day, there wasn’t much of a nightlife. We were there off-season so at night the villa turns into a ghost town. Despite the rain and all, the villa turned out to be the bests part of our trip. Spain is beautiful no matter if you’re on the mainland or on one of its few islands. We went to some pretty scenic places, truly beautiful. I felt like I could fall off the side of the Earth!
