The pessimist complains about the wind, the optimist hopes he will change, the realist adjusts his sails
Day 1:
Arrival at Sant Joan airport and taxi transfer to port. The refuelling is here and we take possession of Mojito. During check-in we notice that the mooring and hune lights do not work. The repair will take a few hours and as a result we will drop the moorings tomorrow. Evening in the city of Palma.
Day 2:
We get up with the storm and the weather forecast the sun at 1200. Head to Portals Vells where we plan to spend the night at anchor.
Day 3:
The sea is beautiful but there is no wind. Head to Can Pastilla where a crew member will join us for the rest of the cruise. At 1500 here he is on board and heading to cala Pi where we will arrive in the evening.
Day 4:
The day promises to be bright and we decide to stay anchored. It's October 7th and we enjoy bathing all day. Snorkeling and relaxation on the menu of the day.
Day 5:
Departure towards the southern tip of the island. Eole is at the rendezvous and it is under sails that we arrive in Colonia Sant Jordi for aperitif and dinner. After swimming heading to the island of Cabrera where we booked a buoy for the night.

Beautiful sunrise over the castle and after a visit to the island and this same castle depart for forty miles to the southwestern tip of Mallorca. Arrive at Portals Vells where we anchor for the night. Swimming, aperitif and supper to end this beautiful day.
Day 7:
Departure for this last day at sea. Head to Palma Bay where we will anchor for dinner, in El Arenal precisely. After a last swim heading to the port of Palma. We stop to refuel and then a good mile in reverse to be called. Check-out, good shower and check out for a good restaurant in town.
Day 8:
Disembarking and having lunch in the city, then we visit Bellver Castle, the cathedral, several squares including the Major Square where we eat with a paella and a covered market before returning to the airport.
It is not favorable wind for one who does not know where he is going.
