What did you do last summer?

Last summer, we decided to have a different holiday. We like travelling and we always try to visit a new place every summer. However, last summer we decided to do something different and new to us.
We rented an apartment in the South of the island and stayed in Los Cristianos for a month. We really enjoyed the experience. We had a relaxing beach holiday which was what we were looking for. We used to go for a walk in the morning, take the kids to the park and have a coffee in one of the many nice and cosy cafés there. We would then go to the apartment, have lunch and let the kids sleep the siesta. After that, we went to the beach in the afternoon and spent there all afternoon swimming, sunbathing and playing with the kids on the beach.

We loved it! The kids had a great time, we relaxed and really enjoyed the experience.

  2. In my last holidays I visited Mallorca. I went with my husband Alejandro in June and we spent a week in this island.
    We stayed in Hotel Royal Cupido, in the center of Palma. The hotel was really fantastic and comfortable. The room was beautiful, well decorated and quite clean. We had a terrace and a big tv. The spa was basic but I like the Jacuzzi. The swimming pool was a little small.
    The food was reasonable. The hotel’s buffet was good, especially breakfast. The restaurant in Mallorca was very expensive and nothing special. The weather was great. It was sunny every day.
    During the day, we visited the island in a car, because we rented one. The car was cheaper than the taxi. We went sightseeing, swam on the beach, and bought souvenirs… Also I took many photographs. At night, we went for a walk around the hotel or we saw the hotel’s show. We always went to bed very late.
    On this trip, we had one problem. We visited “The cathedral of Mallorca”, and we paid the ticket, but when we were entering, we couldn’t because I had to wear a sweater and I was wearing a top, so we didn’t see the cathedral. However, in a hotel, we didn’t complain.
    We had a good time in this holiday because we always get on really well.

  9. Last summer I went to Majorca. I stayed at my sister house in the city of Palma. The weather was sunny and hot! (too hot for me) I spent much time at the beach. I love the balearic food specially the Brut rice, a typical majorcan dish. I always come back to Majorca with ensaïmadas, but , the best of all was to seeing my sister, my niece and my brother in law.

  11. The last summer, I went with my mother and my dog ​​to Las Palmas. We stayed in a very nice hotel and very luxurious. I was all the time in the hotel. We spent the day at the pool,
    It was not necessary to move to do anything, because we had a private waiter served us all. At night, we were going to walk and take a drink in pubs.
    We stayed a week, but I would prefer go to another place that I didn´t know.
