Round the World in 30 Days

Seeing the World – One Month at a Time

Photo of the Day – Palma de Mallorca

Catedral de Mallorca, Balearic Islands

Situated in the middle of the western Mediterranean, the Balearic Islands are a cosmopolitan archipelago just south of Spain.  The city of Palma - capital of the Balearics - is located on Mallorca, the largest of the islands.  We docked in Mallorca this afternoon after a 24-hour journey from Tunisia for the last stop on our Mediterranean cruise.

Easily visible from the sea, the Catedral de Mallorca is the crowning architectural jewel of the island.  Known as one of the most magnificent Gothic cathedrals in all of Europe, the interior chronicles the entire history of Mallorcan art.  We spent a great day visiting the cathedral and strolling the tree-lined boulevards of Palma.

It’s been an amazing cruise and I’m going to be sorry to see it end!  Tonight, we sail back to Barcelona before catching a flight to Mykonos in the morning.  Next stop, Greece!
