Nice one! Have you taken the little wooden train to Soller?

No I read about that yesterday. Is it worth it? And where do you get it from?

Update from that - I just suggested it to mrs ww.

"Oh piss off - go and burn on your wooden train" - she doesn't sound that keen. (She's from Salford! No culture)

The train station is about a ten minute walk just north of the centre. It's worth doing, the train itself climes through the orange and lemon glades, over the mountains into Soller. Soller is one of the prettiest towns in Mallorca, great for browsing, eating and watching the world go by. Some very original shops for souvenirs and good bars/cafes. If you coincide with the market, all the better. From Soller you can get another small train down to Puerto Soller which is also nice. I would go if you have some time to spare and are fed up of beaches and the like. Lovely place and the journey there and back is picturesque too. Train takes about an hour iirc. We are up in Pollensa next month. How was Palma airport?
 
For Just strolling about, taking in the sites and architecture, I'd say Paris, Venice or Bruges.
For a proper drinking session, I love Glasgow, Galway and Budapest. Manchester also rates highly here although I can be a bit impatient with how moody it gets.
Overall, I'd say Barcelona just about has it all, Florence is magnificent too though.
 
Krakow, oldest town square in Europe. Rated churches , cathedral and castle as on a par with most things I saw in Rome including in the Vatican !
Auschwitz nearby , tough place to visit but a must do. Trumps vision for Guantanamo Bay !

Venice for me.
Get an annual fix in December/January when it isn't crowded.
Never tire of it and still learning.

Given we were trying not to be noticed by Mary doll and her acquaintances, I can confirm we were acting in an extremely fox passive way.

Thankfully, all this mullarkey was is the past and I have now come to love the city, it's culture and even some of its more sober residents.

I'm delighted to hear it.
