Rare Sleep7 Posted October 21, 2019 Author #26 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Final stop on the tour and most fun was the Xoroi Caves. What a glorious spot to show off cool and unusual bars and a night club that were built into cliff side caverns overlooking the sea. A beer or glass of wine was included.🍷🍺 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sleep7 Posted October 21, 2019 Author #27 Share Posted October 21, 2019 When we got back to the ship at around 6pm there was enough time to see a little bit of the town of Mahon. The Avarca is a traditional sandal originally developed in Menorca in the Balearic Islands. They were originally made from a leather upper and with the sole made from a recycled car tire.

Rare Sleep7 Posted October 21, 2019 Author #28 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Since we got back on the ship past 7:00 we decide to try the Grill on deck 9 for dinner. It was a glorious evening out and the food was delicious. The steak and fish we ordered was truly "hot off the grill." Lovely service and delicious wines rounded out a great meal.

Rare Sleep7 Posted October 21, 2019 Author #30 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Today we took a ship's excursion to Drach Caves. Wow wow wow! They were a wow! What a genuine hidden treasure! We had about an hour in the caves to walk along the well lit path to the bottom and then were treated to a short classical music concert given by musicians who sailed in on boats on the underground lake. Then a chance to take a 5 minute ride on one of those boats and then back up and out into the sunshine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiccups Posted October 21, 2019 #33 Share Posted October 21, 2019 (edited) Looking at the menu you posted from the Patio, it was the same as the night we dined there, and recalled I saw you and Sam dining. Then I looked at your menu photo again and saw myself in the background. I'm glad for the blur. LOL. Edited October 21, 2019 by hiccups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sleep7 Posted October 21, 2019 Author #34 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Then a short stop at the Majorica pearl factory to see how they are made. It was fine with us.. no pressure sales and they had nice restrooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Literary Lynne Posted October 21, 2019 #35 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Loving your report and all the wonderful photos. It is like reliving the cruise all over again, with the addition of places that we didn't visit, meals that we missed out on etc., although I'm sure we were doing something equally fantastic at the same time. I've written a review, without all the pics, but I know it can take a few days to be uploaded to the Review section. Missing you already, as they say!

Rare Sleep7 Posted October 21, 2019 Author #36 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Hi Helen! Oh my.. that's so funny that you remembered being there that night and it was confirmed by the photo. It's like a movie where in the end the person is proved innocent because they are in a photo nowhere near where the crime took place! lol Hi Lynne! Thanks for the compliments. It really does bring back such nice memories to relive the week thru photos. I can't wait to read your review too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sleep7 Posted October 21, 2019 Author #37 Share Posted October 21, 2019 We spent the rest of the day in Palma. What a beautiful city! Took the shuttle bus there and then for some reason decided to walk all the way back to the ship.. didn't look that far but let me tell you it was. 😮 Not helping was that I was wearing those brand new sandals from Olbia. Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Sleep7 Posted October 21, 2019 Author #43 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Charming, talented, funny and beautiful Amanda Poulson was a fabulous Cruise Director! It was at the White Night party that I realized who she reminded me of.. Jennifer Garner in one of my favorite movies "13 Going On 30." Of course I told her that. Do you see the resemblance? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other 2 ships have 100's of reviews on CC while the Pursuit, being our newest addition to the fleet, needs more reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Sleep7 Posted October 21, 2019 Author #48 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Another beautiful dry, sunny and warm day.. the weather fairies have been very kind to us this cruise. We have never been to Valencia before and I have now put it on my list of cities to go back to. The Pursuit as well as in the other ports that needed one provided a free and very convenient shuttle into town. Thanks Azamara! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
