Holidays in Mallorca and London

Since I had to be on business in Spain and London over the Holidays, Holly joined me and we spent Christmas week in Mallorce and then New Years in London. We had fun in Mallorca because it was the slow season and we had a lot of the island to ourselves. We took a cave tour and got a personal tour since we were the only ones there. Holly got to play the stalagtite pipes by bangining on the tubes with her hands. We drove through a blizzard in the mountains of Mallorca, saw the aincient Roman ruins, toured Palma (the capital city) and saw lots of beautiful cathedrals and churces. We even attended the LDS church on the island.


In london it was so cold we could hardly take it but the sights were nice. Of course I was working while Holly toured Windsor Castle, Stonehinge, and Bath. I did get to see some of the London sights like Westminster Abby, Parliament, Big Ben, Whitehall, Buckingham Palace and the like. We had a great time but missed being with family for the holidays as is our tradition.
