Epic Vacay, Day Two: Palma de Mallorca, 6/10/19

First stop, Palma de Mallorca, an island off Spain.  We went on a guided tour excursion of the island and think we saw pretty much all of it!  What a nice way to start the week!! 

Port of Palma

We had such beautiful weather all week long

A former bullfighting ring across from a factory where they craft Mallorcan pearls

La Seu Cathedral.  I was not thinking for a second that the boys would be interested in touring cathedrals... turns out, I was WRONG!  They were amazed at the sculptures, artwork, stained glass windows, etc.  Our guide was amazing and really gave us a great history and overview of many interesting things about what we were seeing.

We got to see the lighting of the altar, which is only done for five minutes every hour (to conserve the woodwork).  Simply beautiful.


Wow, what a day!  Mallorca was stunning.

Jase capped off the day with a zipline run that went over an open atrium -- ON DECK 16!!  I was gonna get to it later in the week, but never did because every time we went by it again, the zipline wasn't open.  Bummer!!
