I Got to Play Tourist Today!
While Jason was learning even more tennis, (Seriously, how much can there really be to learn? LOL) I went off on another cycling adventure. 20km into my ride yesterday I came upon a museum/historical house that looked quite interesting. That was my destination this...
Can You Call us Athletes Yet??
It is starting to feel less like vacation and more like bootcamp! And we are LOVING every minute of it!! Jason and I are so committed (yes, committed!) to our sports that the touring and vacationing has definitely taken a back seat. With the mercury soaring to highs...
Oh Jameson…
It doesn't matter how good your sleep was, when you wake up to a text that looks like this: your heartrate sky rockets and your once restful self disappears. Apparently our dog, who is being looked after by our daughter, disagreed with being kept in his crate in a...
Red Clay
The early shift today with an 8:30 start. This means a bit of a reprieve from the late morning’s heat. Well, until the sun crests the nearby roof anyways. Today was all about the volley. Volleys near the net, volleys from the service line and volleys...
Tennis!!! Cycling!!! It’s a Good Life.
Janelle's Day: You know when you have a perfect day and you just can't help but smile? That was my day today. I got on my bike - my road bike - and rode. Wow. Talk about the right tool for the job. The plan was to follow the Via Verde from Manacor to Arta, a mere 29km...
A New Vehicle – and a Rafa Sighting!
A very full day today! It was time to say good-bye to our home for the last 9 days. We can't believe this first section of our trip is over. Wow. Time really does fly. As Jason no longer has a bike, we are very certain that we no longer need the serial killer van....
A New Day and Two New Rides
It's been a week already, and it's time to give back my bike. Janelle decided to give hers back too...but swapped it for a shiny & speedy road bike instead! She figures that she can go faster now that the rope has been cut and doesn't have to wait for me! We have...
Ice Cream and Wine!
We are discovering that being in Mallorca is truly a different pace and way of life. We are both vacationing and tripping while here. Getting out 'first thing in the morning' here means leaving the hotel by 10:30 at the earliest. Nothing is open before then, and if...
Choo choo!
I got to try my hand at driving the serial killer van today - luckily, it was mostly on nice big roads and highways and only a little bit in Palma itself. We made it out alive. Palma is the capital of Mallorca and is a great city to walk around in. We found a free...
