Palma

 So today, I had 4 hours to go out of the ship and do as much as I could with him. First time out the ship together, big step, can we both decide on what to do and where to go? I am not one to sit down and spend hours at a restaurant. When I am somewhere new, I want to explore as much as I can or do the most unique thing the place has to offer. So while in Palma I wanted to see the city but also go to the castle to see the view, eat something, have a sangria and look at the great architecture.
We got off the ship and from the shuttle bus started. as good tourist, we took out our cameras and started clicking away. Which ends up giving you that silly touristy, mouth half open, stupid face. He portrays it perfectly.. hehe.

So we started at the Cathedral, really worth the look. we walked up the street through beautiful streets,  found some weird buildings that were strange but at the same time so unique and perfect. we found a little restaurant and had a great paella. I like sea food, he's more meat. i think that's because of where he comes from but I think he pretty much eat anything else. He did try reluctantly a few  mussels, shrimps and others, I could see he really was not keen on it all at.
Skyped with my mum. When you work on a ship the internet is gold. Any free WIFI you get online immediately and get up to date with everything. She spoke and said his name wrong to him for the first time but not the last. To this day every time she says his name I giggle a bit. I can hear him say, its not that hard, and her never once saying it right But mind, I don't say it perfectly myself.

After that we walked around for a while then jumped into a bus where his phone saved us. slightly confused when you don't really speak the language, I can put 10 words together and I am not even sure it really means something. Might be some Italian in there, at this stage I do not even know anymore. Everyone on board speak so many languages when they come to the desk, you end up dealing with all of them at some stage and have to somehow find a way to communicate so you learn a few regular sentences that are always asked and start with that. But for some reason, Spanish is just not sticking with me.
So after his phone saved us, we found the beginning of the road to the castle on the hill... A very long steep hill, with many step to climb steep hill. But we made it, I'm not the fittest person, not even gonna lie. To me that was a work out. I started fully dressed and ended in my t-shirt. But it was all worth it. He survived me kinda moaning and he took it all with a smile and manage to make everything funny.

So got on top and what a view , just big smiles out. The twin sisters in the harbor in front of us, both our twin ships where at port together, so impressive to see them side by side, they are big girls!! After that we had to rush down to the bus to make it back on time for my shift. Obviously got off at the wrong exit so had to run through what seemed to be a very cool little shopping center and right by the ship! ran all the way to the gang way laughing and joking around, and once there, we parted way. No one should know you know. One of the perks of being with security. No one should know you are with security. What a stupid fucking rule. No one is going to respect you less if they see that you are have a partner. I actually think that they will respect you more and see you as a human being not just an ass hole who just gets his way. What century do we live in. Revise the rules a little, This old time crap should not fly anymore. Aren't we the liberated kids, aren't we the ones that are supposed to change the fate of the earth. Surely young men should be allowed to openly date. just saying.

Majorca is fantastic, the food, the colors, the ambiance, the night life and the people all make for a winning combination. I definitely going back there during summer!!!

I started this blog to talk about traveling and it is fast becoming about  him. But hold on, do not worry. There are still many places I will go to that will not involve him. But many that might.
