More Palma

On the second morning, we skipped the bus stop and immediately hailed a cab.  I wanted to see the Picasso, Miro, and Dali paintings at the Museu Fundacion Juan March, a 17th-century mansion with around 70 20th-century pieces on display.  The driver dropped us off in the middle of Carrer de Saint Miquel and pointed left.  Forty-five minutes later, and one stop in the flagship Camper store, we stood at a major intersection still completely lost.  "Mommy, you just asked someone.  Why are you stopping another lady?"  Um.  Because I am wandering around in 100 degree weather completely lost with my two little kids in tow."   Luckily, we eventually found the free museum right across form the Disney Store.







After an hour of culture, we wandered down to Forn des Teatre, a pastry shop with "featherless weight" ensaimades.  Everything looked delicious so we feasted on several different desserts before we headed back to our apartment.




We decided to visit Palma Aquarium, touted the best in the Mediterranean and only a five minute walk away.  We loved the shark tank.




We spent a few hours at the beach and then took a few pictures to remember our "Mommy and Kids" trip:

Ice cream number two - since the first one did not look as good as Owen's

The next morning, we headed home.

  1. Danielle, I am in awe of you! Traveling to a new area with two kids and no assistance is very brave. I will have to remember that when I don't want to go 15 minutes away with out Joshe. I love the photos and the life experiences you are sharing here. :0)
