Our first holiday

Some would say that Pam and I are on permanent holiday now that we are retired and living in Spain. That is true but even still, after nearly nine years of living here, we felt the need for a proper holiday by the sea in either a hotel or a villa.

The first time we flew with the girls was to Puerta Pollenca on the beautiful island of Mallorca. On that occasion we stayed at the Hotel Romantica. Now we are returning to Pollenca but this time we have a luxury 5 bedroom villa overlooking the beach to share with our two daughters, our son-ion-law and of course Molly. The villa accommodates parties of up to ten so should be ample.

The rest of the family set off this morning from Manchester by plane and should arrive there by mid morning. Pam and I fly this afternoon from Alicante to be met by Dave at Palma airport in the car they have hired. Then we have two weeks together, just like old times.

Although the villa has wi-fi, I am only taking my iPad so don’t expect many updates to this blog. Apart from the lack of technology, we will be too busy enjoying ourselves to write blog entries!
