La especie humana es una plaga que acaba destruyendo lo que toca.
No volveré a Mallorca en verano. No sé si por el calor sofocante que impide que puedas hacer cualquier cosa durante gran parte del día salvo estar en remojo en la playa o la piscina, por las riadas de turistas por todas partes o por haber visto dos monstruos atracados en el puerto de Palma (gracias David Foster Wallace por hablar mal de irse de crucero). Resulta terriblemente agresivo, ofensivo y estúpido. Parece que este país siga anclado en los 60/70. Sol, playa y sangría a raudales. Sin límite. Y a nadie le importa; es más, se defiende este modelo. Deprimente es poco.
I can't count the number of times that I have holidayed on Mallorca. Not that I have some infatuation with the island, it is because my sister has lived there for the past fifty years. So after the cost of air fare, the hotel and car come free. As my first holiday was over fifty years ago, I think that I have covered all points east, west, north and south. The 'Lonely Planet Mallorca' guide is an attempt to obtain some inspiration for my forthcoming trip. Lonely Planet do not adorn their guides with glossy colour plates, instead the pages are filled with good advice on areas to visit, where to eat, the main attractions etc. In the coming weeks I will peruse the local library to scan other guides before deciding which one will end up in the suitcase, but I think most travel guides suffice.
Excellent and informative guide on Mallorca, Spain. Divided by region, this Lonely Planet guide has raitings and descriptions of where to stay, eat and play.
This book is a in-depth travel guide to Mallorca,it shows all 4 corners of Mallorca+the Centre and Palma. It tells us a lot about the island and it's attractions and history.
